Universal patching method for side-channel vulnerabilities based on atomic obfuscation by Deqing ZOU, Pan ZHANG, Wei LIU, Weijie CHEN, Yifan LU

“…Executing code containing side-channel vulnerabilities exhibits different non-functional behaviors related to inputs.Attackers can obtain these behaviors by leveraging micro architecture side-channel attacks and then analyze the pattern between the behaviors and the inputs to access sensitive data.Vulnerability repairing at the software layer brings low overheads to a program’s execution.Besides, it does not require modifying hardware or system, which enables fast patching and widespread deployment.It becomes the mainstream strategy applied to the current cryptographic implementations.However, existing solutions are deeply bound to the program’s implementation and requires manual intervention.This brings challenge to implement and is not versatile enough.A general patching method was proposed for side-channel vulnerabilities that combined dynamic obfuscated execution with hardware atomic transaction.To hide the real accesses of the side-channel vulnerabilities of a program, the proposed method inserted dynamic confusing accesses into the vulnerabilities.To avoid an attacker using fine-grained side-channel attack to distinguish the real access and the confusing access, both of them were encapsulated as transactions and they were guaranteed to be uninterrupted during the running period.In addition, a prototype system called SC-Patcher was implemented based on the LLVM compiler.Various optimization strategies were supported, including secure springboard and transaction aggregation, to further improve system security and performance.Experimental results show that the proposed method makes it impossible for an attacker to restore accurate sensitive data through side-channel attack, and it also brings almost no additional performance overhead to the program.…”

Neural Network of Predictive Motor Timing in the Context of Gender Differences by Pavel Filip, Jan Lošák, Tomáš Kašpárek, Jiří Vaníček, Martin Bareš

“…In the presented fMRI study, we sought to characterize the neural nodes engaged specifically in predictive temporal analysis, the estimation of the future position of an object with varying movement parameters, and the contingent neuroanatomical signature of differences in behavioral performance between genders. The established dominant cerebellar engagement offers novel evidence in favor of a pivotal role of this structure in predictive short-term timing, overshadowing the basal ganglia reported together with the frontal cortex as dominant in retrospective temporal processing in the subsecond spectrum. …”

Secure supply and demand relationship perception routing in intermittently connected wireless networks by Peng YANG, Yang TANG, Na SHU, Ru-yan WANG

“…Because of low message delivery probability and nodes malicious attack behaviors in the quota-limit routing for intermittently connected wireless networks,a secure routing is proposed based on supply and demand relationship perception.According to activity degree,average residual buffer ratio of neighbors and encountered nodes reputation dynamically perceived by nodes,the encountered nodes in real time build the supply and demand model and determine the message quota allocation combined with the message survival ratio in common.When network status meets constraint situations,update message quota dynamically based on demand elasticity of message.Simulation results show that the proposed strategy effectively reduces influence of nodes malicious behaviors and improve network performance greatly.…”

Could LC-NE-Dependent Adjustment of Neural Gain Drive Functional Brain Network Reorganization? by Carole Guedj, David Meunier, Martine Meunier, Fadila Hadj-Bouziane

“…Via the temporal dynamic of gamma-range band-limited power, the release of NE could adjust the neural gain, promoting interactions only within the neuronal populations whose amplitude envelopes are correlated, thus making it possible to reorganize neuronal ensembles, functional networks, and ultimately, behavioral responses. Thus, our proposal offers a unified framework integrating the putative influence of the LC-NE system on both local- and long-range adjustments of brain dynamics underlying behavioral flexibility.…”
