Brown Secure Systems Lab (https://gitlab.com/brown-ssl/) had a strong representation @usenixassociation sponsored events this year! Neophytos Christou presented IvySyn at USENIX Security Symposium (SEC) '23, while Di Jin talked about EPF at USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC) '23 earlier in July!

IvySyn fuzzes Deep Learning (DL) frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch) for memory-safety bugs and automatically synthesizes Python code snippets for triggering the respective vulnerabilities | https://www.usenix.org/.../usenixse.../presentation/christou | https://gitlab.com/brown-ssl/ivysyn

EPF (ab)uses the (e)BPF interpreter for bypassing various kernel hardening mechanisms in Linux -- we also introduce a set of lightweight defenses against EPF-style attacks | https://www.usenix.org/conference/atc23/presentation/jin | https://gitlab.com/brown-ssl/epf
