This project develops a new method to specify security properties in Instruction Set Architectures (ISAs) using universal contracts. These contracts help ensure that software behaves securely, even against potential attacks, by providing a clear framework for verifying security across hardware and software systems.
The Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) is the interface that processor hardware offers to software developers.
Current ISAs do not explicitly specify the security properties guaranteed by that interface, so that, for example, recent severe micro-architectural side-channel vulnerabilities like Spectre did not even violate the specifications.
This project proposes a fundamentally new approach to specify ISA security properties by using what we call universal contracts.
These are formal contracts i…
