Rule-Based Integrity Checking of Interrupt Descriptor Tables in Cloud Environments
[chapter]
2013
IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology
An interrupt descriptor table (IDT) is used by a processor to transfer the execution of a program to software routines that handle interrupts raised during the normal course of operation or to signal an exceptional condition such as a hardware failure. Attackers frequently modify IDT pointers to execute malicious code. This paper describes the IDTchecker tool, which uses a rule-based approach to check the integrity of the IDT and the corresponding interrupt handling code based on a common
