چکیده

A Java Card applet is, in general, not allowed to access fields and methods of other applets on the same smart card. This applet isolation property is enforced by dynamic checks in the Java Card Virtual Machine. This paper describes a refined type system for Java Card that enables static checking of applet isolation. With this type system, firewall violations are detected at compile time. Only a special kind of downcast requires dynamic checks.

Guaranteeing Correctness Properties of a Java Card Applet

The paper describes an experiment in which a framework for model checking Java byte code, combined with the application of runtime monitoring techniques through code rewriting, was used to guarantee correctness properties of a Java Card applet.

USENIX Association Proceedings of the 5 th Smart Card Research and Advanced Application Conference

The paper describes a framework for model checking JavaCard applets on the bytecode level. From a set of JavaCard applets we extract their method call graphs using a static analysis tool. The resulting structure is translated into a pushdown system for which the model checking problem for Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) is decidable, and for which there are efficient model checking tools available....

JAIL: Firewall Analysis of Java Card by Abstract Interpretation

We introduce JAIL, a tool for the static analysis and the verification of the applet isolation property of Java Card, where applet isolation means that one applet can not access the fields or objects of an applet in another context unless the other applet explicitly provides an interface for access. The tool statically checks whether the analyzed source code violates this property, thus detecti...
