A central requirement for implementing trusted computing platforms is to validate whether a program executing on a potentially untrusted host is really the program the user thinks it is. In an untrusted environment/host, a program may be compromised in many ways: through static or dynamic replacement of part or all of the binaries, or in the process of static or dynamic linking to untrusted library functions, or through attacks that affect calls and returns. With any of these compromises, the program does not correctly perform its intended functions. The detection of such compromises requires the execution of the entire program to be validated at run time, including the validation of called functions in libraries, the kernel and utilities.
Validating program executions at run-time is a difficult process. Despite the use of non-executable pages [Pax 11a] and address layout randomization (ASLR) [Pax 11b], applications remain vulnerable and an attacker can alter the control flow to take control of the victim applications [Krah 11, Par 10, Sul 06, HHF 09, Bra 08] as they execute. Hund et al. show that run-time attacks can bypass existing mechanisms for assuring the integrity of kernel code and install a rootkit successfully on a windows based system [HHF 09]. Even without any code modification attackers might take control of the application by using jump and/or return oriented programming [BJF+11, CDD+10, BRS+08]. Once a kernel flaw is introduced, it is possible to disable the existing security mechanisms, gain the full control of the victim system and inject code to the kernel memory space [Bra 08]. Digital Rights Management (DRM) applications are also subject to run-time attacks. DRM systems often run as a daemon on the host machine and verify the DRM certificates of the media being accessed and deny access to the copyrighted media in case of the violation on the digital rights specified in the certificate. Rather than getting around the verification and protection mechanism, run-time object code modification might be used to disable the calls to the verification system [Sul 06].
One way to validate the execution of a program is to continuously monitor all attempted changes/updates to the various software components in the program and the rest of the system including the operating system and libraries. The only changes that are permitted are the ones that have been certified as legitimate. Unfortunately, this approach results in a fairly closed system and program execution can be slowed down dramatically if changes to software components that are made at run-time need to be certified as the program executes. Existing approaches to validating the execution of a program include the use of hardware support in the form of the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) [TPM 12] for certifying executables prior to their execution as well as many other techniques that use control flow signatures at run time (Section 2.1).
The most common technique in use today for certifying an execution as genuine relies on the use of the trusted platform module [TPM 12] or a similar facility including a stand-alone cryptoprocessor within a tamper-proof package such as [IBM 10] to authenticate binaries prior to their execution. These techniques fail to detect compromises that occur at run-time. The Cerium co-processor [ChMo 03] validates the signature of cache lines dynamically on cache misses using a context switch to a micro-kernel, thus introducing a serious performance bottleneck. Moreover, Cerium assumes that all of the trusted code will fit into the CPU cache, an impractical assumption for contemporary systems. The SP-architecture [LKM+05] can detect run-time code modifications for instructions but it does not verify the control flow is thus incapable of detecting control flow attacks, such as the return oriented programming attacks. The SP-architecture also requires compiler support and new instructions. The AEGIS co-processor [Su+07] removes the vulnerability of CPU-external authentication logic and authenticates the trusted parts of the kernel and protects the local memory contents when required using one-time pads but does not facilitate efficient, continuous authentication of executing programs.
Existing software mechanisms for validating program execution within a remote host are directed at detecting security breaches at a remote server that executes programs on behalf of a client. Unfortunately, all of the existing software techniques, such as the techniques of [AG 08, KJ 03, SLS+05, Ka 07] for authenticating remote execution are limited in how extensively they validate execution. Most of these do not perform continuous validation as the program executes and all have adverse performance implications. Implementing a software solution for validating remote execution is an open area of research and only a few practical solutions have been proposed to date. A plethora of software techniques, including the use of hardware support [ZZP 04], have been explored in obfuscating control flow in a program to thwart code modifications, including mechanisms to protect the kernel code. In contrast, the present mechanisms provide a full and uniform mechanism to detect tampering of trusted infrastructure code (such as kernel, libraries, utilities) as well as user-level applications.
Run-time Control Flow Authentication
Control flow authentication (CFA) has generally relied on validating control flow paths and/or validating the contents of basic blocks of instructions using cryptographic hashes for the basic blocks. Although these schemes are identical superficially in their use of basic block hashes [FL 04, GON+05, RP 06, ARR+06, MBS 07] the implementations differ significantly in terms of capabilities and implementation. Dynamic code certification has been proposed for software testing. In [SJ 87], compile time signatures are inserted in the binary and are verified by a coprocessor that examines blocks of fetched instructions; the work of [MBS 07] uses basic block signatures for the same purpose and are embedded into the literal fields of RISC instructions. In both schemes, the reference signatures are stored unencrypted, so the system can be easily compromised. In [GON+05], the authors propose the use of hash signatures on data and code blocks to authenticate the blocks as they are fetched using a FPGA-based coprocessor that holds the reference signatures. This scheme requires compiler support and new instructions for validation related functions. Also validation is based on register usage pattern and it is unclear if this check provides security against all types of control flow attacks. Context switches, interrupts and library functions, which are non-trivial, are not described in [GON+05].
Arora et al. [ARR+06] proposed a dynamic CFA mechanism for embedded systems using signature based control flow verification in embedded processors. The technique of [ARR+06], along with preceding work on run-time binary validation (such as [FL 04, RP 06, MBS 07]) and the control flow authentication mechanism as proposed and evaluated in this paper use signatures for basic blocks. Thus, at a superficial level, this mechanism appears similar to the present mechanism. However, there are fundamental differences that have to do with the storage and use of the reference signatures, scalability and applicability in general to an OOO pipeline. In [ARR+06] CAM-tables, pre-loaded by the linker/loader, are used to hold the reference signatures for basic blocks. This introduces two limitations: first, one cannot have large tables to hold all of the basic block signatures of binaries encountered in general-purpose systems; second, context switches require table updates that are very slow and practically hard in most contemporary embedded systems. These problems are solved by using signature caches that are dynamically managed. Such caches require appropriate changes to an OOO pipeline as addressed in the present solutions. The work of [ARR+06] also requires source code access to insert explicit control flow instructions to mark the end of a basic block. The work of [ARR+06] also does not prevent stores from an illicit basic block from modifying memory. Finally, the performance overhead of [ARR+06] makes their adaptation to a general-purpose OOO processor unattractive. REV does not have any of these limitations and has a negligible performance overhead, making its adoption viable.
REM [FL 04] and IMPRES [RP 06] are two techniques that use keyed hashes to authenticate basic blocks (BBs) at run time. Both techniques do not validate how control flowed into a basic block, both require instruction binaries to be re-written and both require basic block hashes to be regenerated when the hash key is changed. REM also requires an ISA extension. The present technique validates both control flow into a BB as well the authenticity of instructions in a BB, without requiring ISA extensions, binary modification or hash regenerations when the key is changed. A re-encryption of the pre-generated hash values is required with key changes. In a recent paper [KZK 10], the authors propose the use of unique signatures for code traces. To avoid a performance penalty, not all of the possible traces in the code are covered—a certain percentage of the traces—the traces that are less likely to execute—are not authenticated. The traces that are not authenticated are not explicitly identified. Consequently, this proposed scheme is therefore not secure—one can replace a branch within a frequently executed trace and also alter any code within the trace to make it appear as a trace whose authentication is not needed, thereby failing to detect any code tampering.
Argus [MBS 07] primarily targets reliability issues and embeds basic block signatures into binaries. To adopt Argus for authenticating executions dynamically, the signatures will have to be encrypted and the delay of decrypting the reference signatures will have to be somehow absorbed as much as possible. Argus also embeds the signatures into unused fields of RISC instructions. For CISC ISAs this is not simple and either boundary tags or post decode information has to be used to extract out the reference signatures. This again adds to hardware complexity or validation delays. Binary rewriting is also avoided. The Argus approach presumably relies on compiler support to transform the binaries to have no more than 5 successors of a BB thereby introducing another requirement not present according to the present scheme. It is also unclear how Argus will support returns from a frequently called function from several locations with this limitation.
Control Flow Integrity (CFI) [ABE+09] is a software technique for validating control flow. It relies on the generation of unique basic block ids and their insertion and run-time validation using a proprietary tool. CFI assumes the kernel and kernel components are trusted and legitimate; thus CFI is not intended and unable to detect attacks at the kernel level. Rootkits can reset the NX bit and thus defeat CFI. Furthermore CFI does not validate the instructions along the control flow path; the present technique does that as well. CFI also has a significant execution overhead.
In [CXH+10], a software technique for detecting return-oriented attacks was introduced. This technique assumes that call and return instructions occur in pairs and that the scope of jumps within a function are limited to the boundary of the function and a function has one entry point. In [KOA+12], the authors introduce a technique called branch regulation (BR) that makes identical assumptions and use the same technique as the earlier work of [CXH+10], to ensure that returns transfer control to the caller, indirect jumps do not transfer control outside a function's boundary or jump into the middle of another function. These are precisely the same as the goals of the technique of [CXH+10], which the authors of [KOA+12] were apparently not aware of. The contribution of the work of [KOA+12] thus appears to be in the use of some modest hardware additions for implementing the basic technique of [CXH+10]. The techniques of both [CXH+10 and KOA+12] do not deal with kernel code (where there are several instances where control can transfer into a function at different points. Both assume that call and returns occur in pairs (and real exceptions to this have been acknowledged in [CXH+10]. BR assumes the entry of a hardware shadow stack to validate returns—but fail to address how extensions of this stack in memory can be protected against attacks. In turn, this implies that BR and the technique of [CXH+10] rely on the kernel code from being uncompromised. Finally, both BR and the work of [CXH+10] require binary modification; BR relies on user-supplied annotations and (presumably) static code analysis. The work proposed here does not have the same limitations as BR or the technique of [CXH+10]; neither does it make the same (unrealistic) assumptions nor does it assume that the kernel code is safe. Both of these techniques only detect return-oriented attacks and instructions along the control flow path are not validated.
The construction of trustworthy systems demands that the execution of every piece of code is validated as genuine—that the executed codes do exactly what they are supposed to do. Most systems implement this requirement prior to execution by matching a cryptographic hash of the binary file against a reference hash value, leaving the code vulnerable to run time compromises, such as code injection, return and jump-oriented programming, and illegal linking of the code to compromised library functions. A mechanism called REV (for Run-time Execution Validator) is provided that can be easily integrated into a contemporary out-of-order processor to validate, as the program executes, the control flow path and instructions executed along the control flow path. REV does not require any binary modification or any extension to the instruction set and uses a signature cache integrated into the processor pipeline to perform the live validation of executions, independent of the binary size REV performs validations at basic block boundaries and ensures that changes to the program state are not made by the instructions within a basic block until the control flow path into the basic block and the instructions within the basic block are both validated. Evaluations using a detailed cycle-accurate microarchitectural simulator for an out-of-order pipeline implementing the X86 ISA demonstrate that the performance overhead of REV is limited to 1.93% on the average across the SPEC 2006 benchmarks, making it very attractive as a practical and complete mechanism for real-time validation of program executions.
Relatively simple hardware extensions to a mainstream style out-of-order superscalar processor that provides these capabilities may be provided to ensure trusted execution, with a tolerable performance overhead. This solution permits any kind of control flow compromise to be detected efficiently at run time in a timely fashion and prevents any adverse impact of any form. Specifically, this system and method not only validates that control is flowing along a legitimate path but also validates that the programs executed on the control flow path were the intended ones.
A simple hardware mechanism for an out-of-order (OOO) processor to validate the execution of a program continuously, as it executes in the face of any kind of control flow attack and any other compromises of the binaries, is provided.
A simple hardware mechanism that relies on the use of a signature cache for the continuous and complete validation of a program (and the library/kernel functions that it invokes) as the program executes is provided. ISA extensions, modifications to the binaries, source-code access, and compiler support are not required.
The system and methodology typically uses control flow information and a cryptographic hash of the instructions within a basic block to authenticate instructions. Alternately, a signature may be used that consists of just the control flow information or just the cryptographic hash of instructions within a basic block, to perform other types of validation, perhaps in conjunction with other information. Therefore, it is understood that these aspects of the technology are separate and discrete, and may be used together or independently, and may be used with other compatible technologies to provide security.
In a processor that uses a trace cache comprising instruction sequences that encompass one or more basic blocks, or information relating to decoded instructions, along a predicted control flow path, the cryptographic hash or the control flow information or both nay be stored from a prior execution of a trace as part of the trace cache entry, to avoid the need for regeneration of the signature information for a subsequent execution of the stored trace. The technique may be used in conjunction with a post-commit write queue that delays memory updates from a basic block pending the validation of execution of the basic block. This technique was evaluated using a detailed, cycle-accurate simulator for the X86-64 ISA and demonstrates that the performance penalty of the scheme is negligible in most cases and tolerable in the extreme instances within the SPEC 2006 benchmark suite.

Requirements of Run-Time CFA for OOO Processors
Although architectural support run-time control flow authentication (CFA) has been proposed and evaluated in the past, the proposals have targeted embedded systems, where the overhead for such authentication is not crippling. This is not the case with out-of-order (OOO) processors and reducing the performance overhead of run-time CFA is critical in these CPUs. Furthermore, one cannot just extend the techniques devised for embedded systems, such as the techniques of [ARR+06, GON+05, ARR+06] to OOO CPUs in a simple way, as one has to take care of specific nuances of a typical OOO datapath. Specifically, one has to address the following requirements of a run-time CFA for an OOO CPU and for the technique in general:
R1. The technique should be scalable: arbitrarily large binaries and statically or dynamically linked libraries have to be handled. Thus, one cannot store reference signatures used for control flow validation in CPU-internal tables, as was done in [ARR+06].
R2. The technique should have as low a performance overhead as possible. In particular, the effect of following delays on overall performance should be minimized (i) generating the cryptographic hash of a BB, and comparing the target and source addresses should and, of (ii) fetching, decrypting and comparing the reference signature.
R3. The technique should be as transparent as possible to the executables. Most existing techniques require ISA extensions [FL 04, MBS 07, GON+05, ARR+06, RP 06] and some actually require the executables to be modified.
R4. The technique should support context switching, system calls as transparently as possible without imposing a large overhead. The techniques of [ARR+06, GON+05] do not meet this requirement: in [ARR+06], the processor internal table holding the reference signatures has to be reloaded on every context switch; a similar restriction applies to [GON+05].
R5. Changes to the permanent state of the system (committed registers, memory locations) made by instructions should be disallowed until the execution of these instructions are validated. All of the existing hardware-based CFA techniques fail to meet this requirement.
R6. Speculative instruction execution should be supported and instructions/authentications along a mispredicted path should be abortable. Existing CFA hardware do not address this requirement.
The present technology can be easily retrofitted to an existing OOO design, does not require any ISA extension and guarantees full binary compatibility of all executables, including the OS and libraries. Thus, Requirement R3 is met immediately.
REV: Validating Executions AT Run-Time—Overview
The proposed technique for control flow authentication and the authentication of instructions executed along the control flow path is called REV: Run-time execution Validator. In REV, the signature of each basic block of committed instructions is validated as the control flow instruction (branch, jump, return, exit etc.) terminating the basic block is committed. In addition to comparing the cryptographic hash function of the instructions in the basic block against a reference signature, that control flowed into the basic block along an expected path is validated by comparing the actual address of the target of branch instruction at the end of the current basic block.
A small on-chip cache, called the signature cache (SC), is incorporated to hold reference signatures that are retrieved from memory. Because of the temporal locality of reference, the SC eliminates the need to fetch the same reference signatures repeatedly from the memory, thus improving the overall performance. As instructions are fetched by the front end, the predicted target address of a branch is used to retrieve the reference signature of the target BB from the main memory via normal memory interface (going through the L1 D-cache and the rest of the on-chip hierarchy).
The use of the SC enables the scalability requirement (Requirement R1) to be met: the SC will only hold the recently-used (and likely-to-be-used) reference signatures and signatures of any executing modules are loaded into the SC as the code executes, unaffected by the size or the number of code modules used. The SC fetches the reference signatures for a BB based on the address of the fetched instruction if the signature does not already exist in the SC and decrypts the reference signature using a secret key as it is fetched. In practice, the delay of this decryption is hidden because of SC hits, hits in the on-chip cache hierarchy and the delay from fetching the first instruction of a BB to the time of validating the signature of the BB. Thus the second part of Requirement R2 is met.
The SC permits context switches to be handled naturally, as it automatically fetches signatures for the executing code thus meeting Requirement R4.
The CHG generates the signature of the instruction stream forming a basic block as the instructions are fetched along the path predicted by the branch predictor for the pipeline. When the last instruction of the current basic block is ready to commit (which is a control flow instruction), the SC will be probed to verify the calculated crypto hash value of the current basic block against the reference control flow signature. On a SC hit at this time, followed by a match of the control flow signature for the basic block, execution continues as usual. On a SC miss, the corresponding reference signature is retrieved into the SC and until a match is performed, the pipeline is stalled. On a signature mismatch an exception is raised and appropriate handlers are invoked.
To meet Requirement R5, the ROB is extended beyond the normal commit stage and also extend the store queue similarly, as shown in
A much stricter approach to meeting Requirement R5 is to defer all changes to the system state until the entire execution has been authenticated. One way to do this is to employ the concept of page shadowing [NG 09]. Initially, the original pages accessed by the program are mapped to a set of shadow pages with identical initial content. All memory updates are made on the shadow pages during execution and when the entire execution is authenticated, the shadow pages are mapped in as the program's original pages. Also, while execution is going on, no output operation (that is DMA) is allowed out of a shadow page.
Memory accesses for servicing SC misses have a priority lower than that of compulsory misses to the data caches, but a higher preference than instruction misses and prefetching requests. If a branch misprediction is discovered, memory accesses triggered by SC fetches along the mispredicted path are canceled and the appropriate pipeline stages in the CHG are also flushed. Interrupts are handled like branch mispredictions. Interrupts flush instructions and results of the earliest basic block in the pipeline (that has not been validated) and resumes from the beginning of the basic block if the interrupt was generated by the BB itself. External interrupts are handled after completing validation of the current BB. The context structure in the Operating System (OS) holds the base address of the signature table in the Random Access Memory (RAM). A signature base register is used to point to the starting (=base) address of the RAM-resident signature table of the executing module (Sec. 4.4).
Supporting Cross-Module Calls
A single program module may call functions within a number of other independently compiled modules. These modules include shared components as well as statically or dynamically linked libraries/modules. Each such module will have its own encrypted signature table. As execution switches from one module to another, the register pointing to the base of the signature table has to be switched from that of the calling module's to that of the callee's. The specific hardware support for cross module calls is part of the signature address generation unit (SAG) shown in
The cross-module call support meets any remaining part of Requirement R1 that is not met by the SC and its associated logic. The Silicon requirements for B base address and limit register pairs and their associated comparators are fairly modest for small values of B (16 to 32). When more than B modules are involved, an exception is generated when none of the limit register pairs enclose the called/return address and the exception handler is invoked to manage the base-limit registers.
Signature Cache (SC) Details
A basic block is identified using the address of the last instruction in the basic block (referred to hereafter as “basic block address”). The SC is a set-associative cache that is accessed using the basic block address. An entry in the SC contains the full address of up to N successors of this basic blocks and the actual outcomes that direct control to flow out of the block, the decrypted crypto hash of the instructions in the basic block and status information that indicates if the decrypted reference signature is present within the entry and if the basic block has more than N successors. For the successor field values in the SC entry, the address of the very first instruction in the successor BBs is used. N has a small value (e.g., 2 used in simulations). If a basic block has more than N successors, only the entries for the N most recently used branches are maintained within the SC entry. This requires the use of additional logic to handle replacements within an SC entry.
As instructions of a basic block are fetched along the speculated execution path, they are fed into the CHG pipeline to compute the cryptographic hash for the basic block. To permit flushing of entries in the CHG, the inputs are tagged with the identification (ID) of the successor basic block along the predicted path. Prior to this, using the predicted target address of the prior branch as the lookup key, the signature cache is probed to determine if the decrypted reference signature and the address of the successor basic block are available in the SC. If both are available, a SC hit occurs and no further actions are needed. Two situations arise on a SC miss: one is a partial miss that indicates the presence of a matching entry with a decrypted reference signature but with no address listed for the successor basic block encountered along the predicted path. The other situation is a complete miss, where no matching entry is found in the SC. In either of these SC miss scenarios, a memory access, going through the normal cache hierarchy, is triggered to fetch the missing information into the SC. The authentication check in REV is invoked when the last instruction in a basic block commits and uses the generated hash signature, address and outcome of the successor basic block for the authentication check against the SC entry.
The data for the encrypted control flow signatures stored in the RAM is stored as a hash-indexed table. Recall that the address of the last instruction in the basic block is used to identify a basic block. This address is used to hash into this structure, computing the index as basic block address mod P, where P is chosen to minimize the conflict in the hash table. Details of the entries in this hash-indexed table are given in Section 4.4. A separate field is available in the entry to point to other entries that are in collision on hashing into the table. The entries in collision are entries for other basic blocks that share the common table index or additional entries for a basic block that has more than two successor basic blocks. The contents of the hash table are all encrypted using a secret key on a trusted host following an analysis of the program binaries. Note that in the course of fetching a signature (or other relevant information into the SC) multiple memory accesses may be required. Such accesses have been modeled correctly in simulations discussed below. When the last instruction in a basic block is committed, the SC is probed to verify the signature of the basic block, as described in Section 4.1.
Basic blocks ending with a return instruction are validated in two steps, the first being the validation of the crypto hash when the return instruction is processed and the second to validate the return instruction as a legitimate predecessor of the BB entered on a return, during the validation of that BB (Section 4.2).
RAM-Resident Encrypted Reference Signature Table
Each executable module has its own memory-resident signature table. The contents of this table are encrypted (Section 4.1). The format of storing the encrypted reference signatures in the memory have the legal branch addresses with the crypto hash values of the each basic block and exploits the fact that most basic blocks (other than those computed branches and the return instructions) have no more than two successors.
A naive way of verifying execution is to store the address of a control transfer instruction and the addresses of the target instruction. The signature table entry for a conditional branch will include its two possible targets, while that for an unconditional jump or a call instruction will have a single target. However, for a computed jump, all potential target addresses need to be listed in the entry. Likewise for a function that is called from multiple locations, the signature table entry for the return instruction terminating such a function should list multiple targets.
For an efficient implementation for lookups to the signature table entries in the RAM following a SC miss, the entries located using the hash indices need to be uniform in size. If each entry located using a hash index is restricted to have at most two target addresses, then a linked list needs to be used for entries that should hold the remaining targets for control flow instructions that require more than two targets. Following such links to locate a matching target address requires indirection through memory locations and will be thus prolong the process of retrieving a matching entry for the memory resident signature table on a SC miss. To avoid this performance penalty for return instructions that terminate a popularly called function, a BB ending with a return is validated in two steps: (a) only the crypto hash of the signature of the BB terminated by the return instruction is validated, but address of the return instruction is saved in a special latch internal to the SC mechanism; (b) when the control flow instruction that terminates the first basic block (say, RB) entered in the calling function following a return instruction, say R, is validated, the execution of the RB is validated in the usual way and simultaneously the address of R is validated. The expected address of R is stored as part of the entry for RB.
In the memory resident signature table (which is stored in encrypted form), entries are classified into several different categories (e.g., 24 types), corresponding basic blocks of different types. Examples of entry types used include, but not limited to the following or their appropriate combination: BB terminated with a conditional branch, BB terminating with (unconditional) jump and a call instruction, BB terminating with a return and also ending with a return, other BB ending with a return, BB entered following a return, BB entered following a computed branch, artificially terminated BB (used to limit number of queued memory writes pending validation) etc. The generic structure on an entry in the memory resident table (decrypted) is as follows:
<type tag>, <BB crypto hash value>, <6-bit hash tag discriminator>, <successor1>, <successor 2>, <other>.
An entry has a type tag field indicating the entry type, the crypto hash of the BB, the address or equivalent information (such as a branch offset) to determine the address of the first instruction in up to two successor BBs. As an entry in the memory resident signature table is located using a hash indexing scheme, the BB crypto hash value and the 6-bit hash tag discriminator are together used to serve as the hash tag to permit the unambiguous identification of the correct table entry for two control flow instructions whose addresses generate the same hash index. Note that the crypto hash value is used as part of the “hash tag”; the 6 additional discrimination bits deal with the case when two control flow instructions share the same hash index and the same crypto hash value—a very unlikely situation. The “other” in the entry contains a pointer to a spill area that lists additional successors and/or the address of a preceding return instruction (the last applicable only to BBs entered on a return) and the next entry, if any, that shares the same hash index (link to the so-called collision chain). The last element in an array of spill values associated with a single table entry is identified using a special tag value.
The primary entry located using a hash index and the following the collision chain links are identical in size, and depending on the entry type, some of the fields are unused. Wherever possible, these unused areas are used to serve as a spill space. Other techniques are also used to minimize the space requirement of the entries, such as using offsets instead of full addresses, listing branch outcomes implicitly, etc.
The signature address generation unit generates a memory address for the required signature table entry on a SC miss, based on the signature table's base address in the RAM (obtained from the signature address register of the executing module (Sec. 4.1)) and the hash of the address of the control flow instruction that terminates a BB (obtained from the front-end stages). Once the entry is retrieved, the two target addresses listed in the entry are compared with the address of the actual target (as predicted by the branch predictor for a conditional branch instruction or as computed for a computed branch or call or return). On a mismatch, additional entries in the spill area are progressively looked up following the link listed in the entry. If no matching entry is located, control is presumably flowing on an illegal path and an exception is generated.
Handling Computed Branches
Computed/indirect branches are generated in many instances by the compiler. Computed branches are treated just like conditional branches, with a “taken” outcome on every possible jump path. To use REV with arbitrary computed branches, one has to determine all potential legal targets of the branch. Sometimes this can be done through a profiling run, for each such identified target the signature data for the basic block that starts with the target instruction can be specified. Targets of indirect branches can also be identified. There are two broad ways to extract the legitimate source-target pairs for the indirect branch addresses [Par 10]: extracting through static analysis [HP 00, Ste 96] or by performing a program profiling runs, as many model-based solutions have done [FHSL 96, GJM 04, ZZPL 05]. The signature generator component extracts the branch source-target pairs through the static analyzer component; it has the limitation of branch discovery. However, once the subset of the legitimate undiscoverable branch source-target pairs are supplied to the signature generator, the signatures and basic blocks will be generated for runtime verification. An alternative hardware mechanism [LSL 09] also uses such profiling runs to train a mechanism to just authenticate indirect branches. Profiling runs were used for some of the SPEC benchmarks to identify the targets of indirect branches.
Handling Legitimate Self-Modifying Code
REV relies on basic block signatures derived from a static analysis and as such it cannot directly handle intentional dynamic binary modifications (self-modifying code). It is useful to note that such modifications are a perpetual threat to system security, as noted in several recent and past literatures [Bla 11, SJW+11, HHW+06, YJP 04]. However, there are real scenarios where binary modification is used intentionally for reasons of efficiency, such as by OS boot loaders and by Java just-in-time compilers. In such scenarios, the functions that perform the intentional binary modifications are assumed to be trustworthy (and are validated dynamically using REV). Consequently, it is expected and assumed that the modified binaries that these trusted functions produce are trustworthy themselves and when such modified binaries are run, the REV mechanism can be momentarily disabled by the OS. Of course, to the extent that self-modifying code can be predicted, these presumptions may be replaced with predicted block signatures.
Timing And Other Implications
The REV crypto generator (CHG, in
Depending on the particular cryptographic hash functions used (as reported in [TFK+10]), the area of the hash function generator, extrapolated to 32 nm implementations, can consume about 4% to 5.5% of the die area of a modern out-of-order core implementing the X86 ISA. With the decryption hardware, the SCs, the crypto hash address generator and the CHG, the die area increase resulting from the inclusion of the proposed additions for REV is likely to be about 8% with 32 Kbyte SCs, based on a very rough estimation. This increase in die size is believed to be an acceptable area overhead for the REV mechanism for a contemporary out-of-order processor.
Security of the REV Mechanism
REV relies on the use of encrypted reference signatures for basic blocks to be stored in the RAM. This requires the use of secret keys for decrypting the reference signatures for each executable module. Such keys can be stored in secure key storage in the RAM that can be implemented using a TPM. The external TPM mechanism in contemporary system can be easily used [TPM 12]. An adversary may overwrite the memory locations for key storage—at best this will cause the validation effort to fail (Section 4.1) but this will never allow illicit code to be authenticated, as the secret key for decrypting the reference signature is held in secure locations. REV also requires two system calls. One of these is for loading the base addresses of the memory areas that contain the encrypted reference signatures into the special registers within the crypto hash address generation unit. The second system call is used to enable or disable the REV mechanism and this is only used when safe, self-modifying executables are run (Section 4.6). For REV to work properly, these two system calls must be secured as well.
This approach introduces a relatively simple hardware support for preventing any code injection attacks, either direct or indirect, any attack that could cause control flow misbehavior.
REV, a technique for control flow authentication that also validates instructions executed along the legal control flow paths in a modern out-of-order processing core is presented and evaluated. The technique addresses the practical needs of a contemporary system such as not requiring executables to be modified, the ability to support arbitrary executable sizes and to permit integration into existing OOO core designs. REV authenticates execution at the granularity of basic blocks and detects control flow compromises and binary compromises at run-time by validating the actual control flow path and instruction signatures at run time against reference information derived from a static analysis of the executables. REV thus validates both code integrity and control flow integrity simultaneously at run-time with a negligible performance overhead. REV also ensures that changes to the computation states are not made by the instructions in a basic block until the basic block and the control flow path into the basic block are simultaneously validated. To avoid any compromises in the validation, REV stores the reference information used for validation in an encrypted form in memory. REV thus offers a practical way to guarantee the authentication of any program execution, including applications, libraries and kernel code.
REV performs complete execution validation at run-time.
REV relies of the ability to derive a control flow graph of the program. For critical applications, it is possible to generate a CFG—perhaps even relying on the availability of the source code.
REV also limits run-time binary code modification to trusted functions (Section 4.6) and requires these functions to be validated as they execute. However, it is widely known that deliberate binary modifications in general makes a system vulnerable, so limiting binary modifications to trusted functions may not be a real impediment in security-conscious systems.
REV also requires additional memory space for holding the reference signature of the executables being verified. This is a reasonable price to pay for the continuous and complete validation of execution at run-time.
