How to Analyze Code for Vulnerabilities using Joern

▬▬▬▬▬▬ ABSTRACT & BIO 📝 ▬▬▬▬▬▬
Code analysis is the process of analyzing the code of a program to find security vulnerabilities. It is the most effective way to identify many types of security issues, from injection vulnerabilities to issues like leaked secrets and vulnerable dependencies. But the process of manually analyzing code for vulnerabilities can be very time-consuming. Is there a better way to do this?

In this episode, Vickie and Suchakra will demonstrate how to use the open-source code analysis tool Joern to make code analysis more efficient. How do you effectively trace user input in code? How can you efficiently link bug sources to sensitive sink functions? This is the second edition of How to analyze code for vulnerabilities (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8CNysN-lOM), this time, they’ll talk about how to do it efficiently using Joern.

SUCHAKRA
Suchakra Sharma is Staff Scientist at ShiftLeft Inc. where he builds code analysis tools and hunts security bugs. He completed his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from Polytechnique Montréal where he worked on eBPF technology and hardware-assisted tracing techniques for OS analysis. As part of his research, he also developed one of the first hardware-trace-based virtual machine analysis techniques. He has delivered talks and training at venues such as RSA, USENIX LISA, SCALE, Papers We Love, Tracing Summit, etc. When not playing with computers, he hikes and writes poems.
