Since fixing all driver bugs is nearly impossible, isolation of drivers is necessary to be a fundamental mechanism for reducing the attack surface between system composition boundaries. Compared with hardware-based isolation(Xen, Nooks, etc) and software-based isolation (e.g. SFI), language-based isolation often gains fine-grained safety, such as type constraints and thread-safety properties. <br>\r\nSafeDrive was an early effort to protect Linux C drivers using type checks, memory-safety invariants, and recovery support, but it still had overhead and incomplete safety. RedLeaf, built in Rust completely, reduces runtime checks by relying on Rust's ownership system while enabling efficient communication through validated interfaces. As Rust enters mainline Linux, a new challenge appears: Rust components need to interact with legacy foreign-language code, where safety guarantees can break. Omniglot addresses this by enabling safe, zero-copy interaction between Rust and unmodified untrusted code using carefully designed memory isolation primitives.<br>\r\nGoing forward, my research will continue to focus on the intersection of operating systems and programming languages.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Selected papers</u><br>\r\n<strong>Paper 1: </strong>SafeDrive: Safe and Recoverable Extensions Using Language-Based Techniques [OSDI'06]\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.5555/1298455.1298461\">https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.5555/1298455.1298461</a></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>Paper 2: </strong>RedLeaf: Isolation and Communication in a Safe Operating System [OSDI'20]\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://www.usenix.org/conference/osdi20/presentation/narayanan-vikram\">https://www.usenix.org/conference/osdi20/presentation/narayanan-vikram</a></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<strong>Paper 3: </strong>Building Bridges: Safe Interactions with Foreign Languages through Omniglot [OSDI'25]\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://www.usenix.org/conference/osdi25/presentation/schuermann\">https://www.usenix.org/conference/osdi25/presentation/schuermann</a></li>\r\n</ul>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-08T11:09:55", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-08T11:10:13", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "BC 133", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==BC%20133", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "Yiwen Xu", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "EDIC candidacy exam", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120700/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/48/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71835, "title": "Testing the Hypervisor Boundary: Semantic Oracles and Adversarial Input Generation for pKVM", "slug": "testing-the-hypervisor-boundary-semantic-oracles-a", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/testing-the-hypervisor-boundary-semantic-oracles-a", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33155/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33155/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33155/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-06-22", "end_date": "2026-06-22", "start_time": "13:00:00", "end_time": "15:00:00", "description": "<u>EDIC candidacy exam</u><br>\r\nExam president: Prof. Katerina Argyraki<br>\r\nThesis advisor: Prof. Mathias Payer<br>\r\nCo-examiner: Prof. Thomas Bourgeat<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Abstract</u><br>\r\nHypervisors underpin modern confidential computing stacks, yet their exposed interfaces - hypercalls, fault handlers, and device interactions - remain a large and under-tested attack surface. Existing approaches fall short: coverage-driven fuzzers (e.g., HYPERPILL) explore broadly but rely on crash oracles, missing non-crashing vulnerabilities, while specification-based systems (e.g., Ghost) detect semantic violations but constrain input generation and under explore adversarial cases.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis thesis focuses on systematic bug finding in pKVM by combining semantic oracles with coverage-guided, adversarial fuzzing. Executable interface specifications are used to flag behavioral inconsistencies, while mutation-based input generation deliberately produces both valid and model-violating inputs to reach boundary conditions and deep execution paths. The approach further incorporates EL2 coverage feedback and concurrent vCPU sequences to expose bugs such as silent state corruption, ownership violations, and TOCTOU races.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe goal is to uncover security-critical vulnerabilities that evade both crash-based fuzzing and model-constrained testing, particularly in unspecified or adversarial input classes. More broadly, the work aims to establish a practical methodology for bug-driven testing of production hypervisors.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Selected papers</u><br>\r\ncoming soon", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-08T11:14:42", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-08T11:14:42", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "BC 133", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==BC%20133", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "Sofiia Saltovskaia", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "EDIC candidacy exam", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120701/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/48/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71836, "title": "Nanoscale analysis of membrane proteins in native milieu", "slug": "nanoscale-analysis-of-membrane-proteins-in-nativ-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/nanoscale-analysis-of-membrane-proteins-in-nativ-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33156/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33156/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33156/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-07-07", "end_date": "2026-07-07", "start_time": "15:00:00", "end_time": "16:00:00", "description": "<strong>Abstract: </strong>In this seminar, Moitrayee Bhattacharyya will present her lab’s work on developing experimental platforms to resolve the molecular and functional organization of membrane proteins in their native environments and applying these tools to study membrane proteins that regulate neuronal signaling and neurodegeneration, chronic pain, and cancer. High-resolution quantitative measurements of the oligomeric organization of membrane proteins in native membranes, and how they change under different conditions, are indispensable for understanding membrane protein biology. Her lab reported a single-molecule technique, Native-nanoBleach, to determine the oligomeric distribution of membrane proteins from native membranes at ~10 nm spatial resolution and at endogenous levels of expression. They applied Native-nanoBleach to quantify the oligomerization status of structurally and functionally diverse membrane proteins. Her team has now extended this general technique to organellar membrane proteins and membrane contact sites in the context of neurodegeneration and rare developmental diseases. This general experimental pipeline will usher in a new era of studying membrane protein organization in their native membrane environments under various physiological and clinical conditions.<br>\r\n \r\n<div><strong>Bio</strong>: Moitrayee Bhattacharyya received her Ph.D. in Computational Biophysics at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, where she used molecular dynamics simulations and network theory to study allosteric communication in protein complexes. She transitioned into experimental biology during her postdoctoral studies at the University of California, Berkeley, as a Human Frontiers Science Program Long Term Fellow. Here, she used structural biology and single-molecule microscopy to study the molecular mechanism of regulation in a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that is critical for learning and memory. She started her lab at Yale University in the summer of 2020. One focus is to develop broad-impact technological platforms that enable high-resolution studies of membrane proteins in native membranes, in her lab and beyond. Her lab also applies these technologies in conjunction with established biophysical and structural methods to understand the molecular mechanisms of membrane-localized signaling in chronic pain and neurodegenerative diseases.</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-08T14:43:44", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-11T09:28:30", "link_label": "", "link_url": "https://medicine.yale.edu/profile/moitrayee-bhattacharyya/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Conference room SV.1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://www.epfl.ch/schools/sv/it/sv-rooms/#SV1717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Moitrayee Bhattacharyya, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of Pharmacology, Yale University School of Medicine ", "organizer": "Institute of Bioengineering, EPFL", "contact": "Prof. Florian Schueder", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120702/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71838, "title": "Composable Performance Interfaces with Controlled Resolution", "slug": "composable-performance-interfaces-with-controlled", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/composable-performance-interfaces-with-controlled", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33158/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33158/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33158/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-06-26", "end_date": "2026-06-26", "start_time": "11:15:00", "end_time": "13:15:00", "description": "<u>EDIC candidacy exam</u><br>\r\nExam president: Prof. Nate Foster<br>\r\nThesis advisor: Prof. George Candea<br>\r\nCo-examiner: Prof. Rachid Guerraoui<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Abstract</u><br>\r\ncoming soon<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Selected papers</u><br>\r\ncoming soon", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-08T16:49:17", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-08T16:49:17", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "INN 326", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==INN%20326", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "Alexandre Piveteau", "organizer": "", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "EDIC candidacy exam", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120704/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/48/?format=api" ] } ] }
