ABOUT US (TEAM)
Maintaining security is a constantly shifting task, and we need to
respond with continuous learning and research. The portfolio of SAP
Security Research contains those topics that we believe are most
important for SAP’s security future.
SAP’s vision to secure business is built on 3 ideals:
ZERO-VULNERABILITY, to harden the software by eliminating
vulnerabilities, DEFENSIBLE APPLICATION, to enable the software to
identify and prevent attacks, and ZERO-KNOWLEDGE, to make any theft of
data useless through encryption.
Considering these aspects, SAP Security Research covers the following
focal areas: Anonymization for Big Data, Secure Internet of Things,
Software security analysis, Open-source analysis, Deceptive
application, Applied cryptography, Quantum technology, and Machine
Learning as enabler for the next generation of security.
PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
This internship is based in the SAP Labs France Research Lab, in
Sophia-Antipolis. The work will be performed in the context of the
Research Program “SAP Security Research”, under the “Open-Source
Security Analysis” topic. Nowadays software applications include
more and more open-source (OSS) libraries. Automated package
management tools allow developers to find and integrate libraries in
their projects with minimal effort. While automated dependency
management simplifies software reuse, there is no guarantee that the
software package automatically downloaded from the package repository
(e.g., Maven Central) originates from the build of the library
source-code available ,e.g., at github.com.
The goal of the internship is to establish whether all the bytecode in
the software package originates from the source code of the library
repository (thereby establishing its integrity) or whether it also
includes bytecode whose origin cannot be established and may be
potentially malicious.
EXPECTATIONS AND TASKS
The expected work is to investigate techniques to compare source-code
and bytecode to develop an approach and tooling to compare Java source
code with Java bytecode. In particular the approach must be able to
establish a distance measure in case there is no exact match.
Some of the tasks to be addressed shall include:
* Explore state of the art on code comparison/code cloning
* Explore alternative intermediate representations for Java code
* Develop proof of concept for Java source-code/bytecode comparison
* Experiment the proposed solution on libraries hosted in Maven
Central
We expect that 60% of time will be dedicated to development and 40% to
research activities.
