Researcher: Auto-inferring error specifications is security's next frontier
Security researcher mboehme argues that the difficulty gap between automated attack and defense mirrors that between conjecturing and proving in mathematics, and that auto-inferring program-specific "error specifications" will be the next frontier in security, citing Orange Tsai's $175,000 Edge sandbox exploit.
