The title of our blog post may sound like a directive from a Dungeon Master, but it’s firmly rooted in Galois’s forward-thinking computer science. C/C++ code is the foundation of our most critical systems – even “new” systems nearly always incorporate legacy code. But this type of component reuse carries its own dangers because we […]

The standard development tools for the Rust language provide a convenient mechanism for embedding tests within your code that can then be automatically run using the `cargo test` command. This video shows how to migrate from testing to verification of Rust programs by converting a standard Rust test to use Galois’ Crux tool. Crux can […]

We are happy to announce the first formal release of Crux, a new open-source verification tool from Galois. This new tool aims to improve software assurance using symbolic testing, a technique that allows for smooth migration from testing to verification. Crux builds on the same infrastructure as our Software Analysis Workbench (SAW), but with a […]

We are pleased to announce a public preview of the Software Analysis Workbench. The Software Analysis Workbench (SAW) provides the ability to formally verify properties of code written in C, Java, and Cryptol. It leverages automated SAT and SMT solvers to make this process as automated as possible, and provides a scripting language, called SAW […]

Last Thursday, the University of Bristol posted a press release and paper describing a way to exploit a bug in version 0.9.8g of OpenSSL and extract the value of a private key. The bug was known, and has been fixed in recent versions of OpenSSL (0.9.8g was released in 2007, and 0.9.8h fixed the bug […]
