Research on evolution and security risk of Metaverse by Hailong WANG, Yangchun LI, Yuxiao LI

“…Recently, the Metaverse boom has swept the world.To improve the voice in the future digital field, major countries and well-known enterprises have accelerated arrangement of this emerging industry.However, there is no unified definition and ultimate form description of Metaverse.It is urgent to understand the essential characteristics, evolution trend and security risks of Metaverse scientifically, which can promote the high-quality development of China’s electronic information industry and ensure the cyberspace security.With literature research and related information analysis, the definition of Metaverse was put forward based on the core concepts such as technology and application iteration, economic and business model and the role of social relations.Additionally, the development and evolution of Metaverse were divided into four stages (data creation, digital bionics, virtual mirror and virtual-real symbiosis) according to the evolution degree of space category, space-time dimension, key technology and virtual real interaction.And the characteristics and corresponding forms of each stage were expounded.Then it analyzed the main reasons for the popularity of the Metaverse from the perspectives of innovative application demand, virtual life transformation, commercial value driving and political power driving.Focusing on the problems of challenging the national governance system, impacting the mainstream ideology, manipulating the capital market, causing potential social problems and misleading the layout of technology industry, it analyzed the multiple security risks and threats brought by the Metaverse wave from perspectives including politics, culture, economy, society and technology.It is suggested that the Metaverse is still in the stage of concept improvement and product exploration now.China should rationally grasp the development opportunities of the Metaverse based on the current situation of the electronic information industry, prepare for risks in advance, build a digital governance supervision system, stimulate industrial innovation and open development, consolidate the support of network information security, and create a healthy and orderly international environment.…”

Hardcoded vulnerability detection approach for IoT device firmware by Chao MU, Xin WANG, Ming YANG, Heng ZHANG, Zhenya CHEN, Xiaoming WU

“…With the popularization of IoT devices, more and more valuable data is generated.Analyzing and mining big data based on IoT devices has become a hot topic in the academic and industrial circles in recent years.However, due to the lack of necessary detection and protection methods, many IoT devices have serious information security risks.In particular, device hard-coded information is closely related to system encryption and decryption, identity authentication and other functions, which can provide confidentiality protection for core data.Once this information is exploited by malicious attackers, serious consequences such as sensitive information leakage, backdoor attacks, and unauthorized logins will occur.In response to this problem, a multi-type character recognition and positioning scheme was designed and a hard-coded vulnerability detection method in executable files was proposed based on the study of the characteristics of hard-coded vulnerabilities in IoT devices.The proposed method extracted the firmware of IoT devices and filtered all executable files as the source to be analyzed.Then, a solution to identify and locate three types of hard-coded characters was provided.Further, the reachability of the function, where the hard-coded character was located, was analyzed according to the function call relationship.Meanwhile, the instruction heterogeneity was mitigated by an intermediate representation (IR) model.The character and parameter hard-coded values was obtained through a data flow analysis approach.A symbolic execution method was devised to determine the trigger conditions of the hard-coded vulnerabilities, and then the vulnerability detection result was output.On the one hand, the proposed method introduced the method of symbolic execution based on the use of the intermediate representation model, which eliminated the dependency of instruction architecture and reduces the false positive rate of vulnerabilities; On the other hand, this method can integrate characters, files, and cryptographic implementation to realize the different characteristics of three types of hard-coded characters, which increased the coverage of vulnerability detection and improves the versatility of the detection method.The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect three types of hard-coded vulnerabilities of characters, files and cryptographic implementation in various IoT devices, and has good detection accuracy, which can provide certain guidance for the deployment of subsequent security protection technologies.…”
