Vulnerable C++

<p>Programming languages contain features that could cause code to behave badly. Either by creating hazards in safety critical software, or by creating entry points for attacks in security-critical software.</p> <p>ISO SC22 WG23 working group collects common language vulnerabilities and provides standards that map the common vulnerabilities to specific programming languages and their mitigations.</p> <p>This talk will give an overview of typical vulnerabilities and will demonstrate examples on how C++ maps to those generic vulnerabilities and how the upcoming standard 24772-10 provides advice for mitigation.</p>
