The European Union Cybersecurity Policy: Operationalization of the Resilience Concept by T. A. Romanova, A. N. Malova

“…The authors highlight a tendency towards increasing securitization of the cybersphere in the EU cybersecurity discourse, which might lead to the narrowing of the concept of ‘cyberresilience’ and its transformation into a common euphemism. At the same time the authors conclude that the EU itself is not interested in oversecuritization of the cybersphere, and thus the EU cybersecurity policy will eventually evolve towards resilience-based approaches.…”

The Role of the P1 Latency in Auditory and Speech Performance Evaluation in Cochlear Implanted Children by Shan Xiong, Liwei Jiang, Yu Wang, Tao Pan, Furong Ma

“…This study found that P1 and N1 of the intracochlear CAEP were reliably evoked in children fitted with CIs and that the latency of the P1 as opposed to that of N1 was negative in relation to the wearing time of the cochlear implant. Moreover, the latency of the P1 produced significantly negative scores in both CAP and SIR tests, which indicates that P1 latency may be reflective of the auditory performance and speech intelligibility of pediatric CI recipients. …”

Java deserialization gadget chain discovery method based on hybrid analysis by Yongxing WU, Libo CHEN, Kaida JIANG

“…Java deserialization vulnerabilities have become a common threat to Java application security nowadays.Finding out the gadget chain determines whether this type of vulnerability can be exploited.Due to the large code space of Java applications and dependent libraries and the polymorphism of Java itself, manual analysis of Java deserialization gadget chains consumes a lot of time and effort and it is highly dependent on the experienced knowledge.Therefore, it is crucial to study how to efficiently and accurately automate the discovery of gadget chains.Java deserialization gadget chain discovery method based on hybrid analysis was proposed.Call graph based on the variable declaration type was constructed, and then the deserialization entry functions that may reach the dangerous functions were screened using the call graph analysis.The screened entry functions were used as the entry point of the hybrid information flow analysis.The hybrid information flow analysis was carried out for both pointer and tainted variables.The tainted objects created implicitly were marked.The tainted information and the pointer information were propagated simultaneously to construct the hybrid information flow graph.The reachability of external taint data propagation to the dangerous function was judged based on the hybrid information flow graph.The corresponding deserialization gadget chain was constructed according to the taint propagation path.The hybrid analysis took into account the efficiency of call graph analysis and the accuracy of hybrid information flow analysis.The corresponding static analysis tool, namely GadgetSearch, was implemented based on the proposed hybrid analysis method.In the experimental evaluation, GadgetSearch had lower false positive and lower false negative than the existing tool GadgetInspector on four datasets of Ysoserial, Marshalsec, Jackson historical CVE, and XStream historical CVE.Additionally, GadgetSearch also found multiple undisclosed gadget chains.The experimental results show that the proposed method can efficiently and accurately discover the Java deserialization gadget chain in multiple practical Java applications.…”
