Recovering Container Class Types in C++ Binaries

We present TIARA, a novel approach to recovering container classes in c++ binaries. Given a variable address in a c++ binary, TIARA first applies a new type-relevant slicing algorithm incorporated with a decay function, TSLICE, to obtain an inter-procedural forward slice of instructions expressed as a CFG to summarize how the variable is used in the binary (as our primary contribution). TIARA then makes use of a GCN (Graph Convolutional Network) to learn and predict the container type for the variable (as our secondary contribution). According to our evaluation, TIARA can advance the state of the art in inferring commonly used container types in a set of eight large real-world COTS c++ binaries efficiently (in terms of the overall analysis time) and effectively (in terms of precision, recall and F1 score).
