Failure to keep track of the contents of virtual servers can limit overall efficiency and create security risks for users. Prior work in software discovery attempted to address this problem by identifying applications based on file system activity. While some of these methods have claimed to be extensible to detection of specific versions of an application, version detection has yet to be demonstrated. In this paper, we propose version detection algorithms that operate on top of Praxi, an existing open-source software discovery tool. These algorithms introduce a rule-based component to differentiate between versions, whose file system footprints can appear very similar. We find that our best method achieves up to 99.9% accuracy in version detection experiments compared to Praxi's original 94% accuracy, albeit at the cost of increased runtime. This work confirms the feasibility of version detection in software discovery and provides a starting point for implementing this feature in software discovery tools.","PeriodicalId":117044,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 21st International Middleware Conference Demos and Posters","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128632892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, supply-chain attacks and security related bugs demonstrate that binaries, once deployed, may need to be revoked and replaced with updated versions. Recently, blockchain ecosystems have garnered broad attention as middlewares for decentralised solutions to existing problems. Stengele et al. [4] presented a concept how the Ethereum blockchain and peer-to-peer network can be used to ensure the integrity of binaries with timely, accurate, and machine-readable revocations. In this work, we show this concept in practice with a user client implementation in Go and demonstrate how revocations and updates can reliably reach a user client within minutes. We show the client's ability to ensure the integrity of multiple binaries and continuously monitor the Ethereum blockchain for updates and revocations via an unmodified Ethereum client. We also examine the trust relations and trade-offs through our use case. Since the user client fully relies on an Ethereum client as a gateway, the latter's resilience against malicious actors is crucial to consider in a practical deployment.","PeriodicalId":117044,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 21st International Middleware Conference Demos and Posters","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132903145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
