C++ coroutines prone to code-reuse attack despite control flow integrity

August 4, 2025 Tech Xplore

A code-reuse attack named coroutine frame-oriented programming (CFOP) is capable of exploiting C++ coroutines across three major compilers, namely Clang/LLVM, GCC and MSVC. CFOP even succeeds in environments that are protected by control flow integrity […]

AI models simulate human subjects to aid social science research, but limits remain

August 4, 2025 Tech Xplore

LLMs that emulate human speech are being used to cost-effectively test assumptions and run pilot studies, producing promising early results. But researchers note that human data remains essential.This article was originally published on this website.
