Abstract

Illegal distribution and use of software is a big ad hoc problem in software industry today, especially on the growing market of Java software product. Tamper-proofing techniques will disable some or all of the program¿s functionality once they detect any unwanted modifications during run time. This paper presents the attempt to Java software tamper-proofing technology by dynamic monitoring. The Java method¿s control flow graph is described by regular expressions, which can be regarded as a language. Certain stack signature in these control flows is also computed. During program execution, the protected method¿s control flow and stack signature information is verified at runtime by a monitor thread which checking whether the execution trace is accepted by the language, and the signature belongs to the right method. Experimental result shows that this tamper-proofing method is especially suitable for non-computation dense Java applications.
一种Java程序防篡改方法
非法分发和使用软件是当今软件行业的一个大问题,特别是在不断增长的Java软件产品市场上。防篡改技术一旦在运行期间检测到任何不必要的修改,就会禁用部分或全部程序功能。本文介绍了通过动态监控实现Java软件防篡改技术的尝试。Java方法的控制流图是用正则表达式来描述的,可以看作是一种语言。还计算了这些控制流中的某些堆栈签名。在程序执行过程中,受保护方法的控制流和堆栈签名信息由一个监视线程在运行时验证,该线程检查执行轨迹是否被语言接受,签名是否属于正确的方法。实验结果表明,这种防篡改方法特别适用于非计算密集的Java应用。
