PurSec Lab members presented 4 papers at this year's @USENIXSecurity #usesec25!
Doguhan Yeke presented his paper at @USENIXSecurity (#usesec25) - "Automated Discovery of Semantic Attacks in Multi-Robot Navigation Systems". This work identifies and analyzes vulnerabilities in MRCA algorithms and proposes practical countermeasures🤖
Congrats to all authors! 🙌
Chandrika Mukherjee presented her paper at @USENIXSecurity (#usesec25) - "Shadowed Realities: An Investigation of UI Attacks in WebXR". This study identifies UI-based vulnerabilities in WebXR and conducts a user study to measure users' perceptions 🏆
Congrats to all authors! 🙌
Arslan Khan (with Ruoyu Wu) presented his paper at @USENIXSecurity (#usesec25) - “NEUROSCOPE: Reverse Engineering Deep Neural Network on Edge Devices using Dynamic Analysis”, proposing a framework for reverse-engineering DNN binaries on edge devices🧠
Congrats to all authors! 🙌
Junpeng Wan presented his paper at @USENIXSecurity (#usesec25) - “HubBub: Contention-Based Side-Channel Attacks on USB Hubs”. This work has several interesting attack scenarios and explores the potential side-channel risks of using USB hubs⚡️
Congrats to all authors! 🙌
Raymond Muller presented his paper at @IEEESSP (#ieeesp2025) “Investigating Physical Latency Attacks against Camera-based Perception”
Final talk of PurSec lab at @USENIXSecurity #usesec24 by Syed Ghazanfar on improving ICS attack detection!
Raymond Muller presenting his paper titled “ VOGUES: Validation of Object Guise using Estimated Components “

I am currently looking for highly motivated students to join my research group. Reach out if you're interested in systems/software security technologies, such as software compartmentalization, fuzzing, or any domain of embedded systems, such as automotive, ICS, robotics, CPS...

I am thrilled to announce that I will join the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (@PennStateEECS ) at @penn_state as an Assistant Professor starting this Fall. Huge thanks to my advisors and mentors: Dongyan Xu, @davejingtian, @anton00b, and @ZBerkayCelik.
We are excited to present our new tool Patcherex2. We designed it from the ground up to be a highly modular binary patching framework making it easier to add support for new architectures and maintain compared to the original Patcherex. Try it out for your future patching needs.
I am happy to announce Patcherex2 (github.com/purseclab/Patcher…), an easy-to-use, Python-based binary patching tool, designed to be extensible and compatible with multiple architectures.
The code was mainly written by my student @__Han_Dai__ at @PurdueCS, for the DARPA AMP program.
@PurSecLab is proud to lead the initiative to secure cyber physical systems under the DARPA firefly program. Stay tuned for exciting tools we’re baking in-house for this initiative!

“Overall, the most important part of patching is not automation but safety,” adds @davejingtian, an assistant professor at @PurdueCS. “It turns out that it’s non-trivial to prove that a patch does exactly what it should — nothing more or less."

I'm excited to announce that my paper on robotic vehicles has been accepted to S&P'24!🎉The topic is quite different from what I did before. I'm eager to share more details after the meta-review step. Please stay tuned!

It is my honor to be mentioned as one of the noteworthy reviewers at RAID’23. Thanks for providing valuable junior PC opportunities!
Replying to @chrossow
Among all the reviewers, some stood out for especially high quality. We are thus delighted to especially recognize the following reviewers for their excellent contributions throughout the review process. Among them, five (!) "junior" PC members! HUGE thanks to everyone. 3/3
