In computing, a stack trace (also called stack backtrace or stack traceback) is a report of the active stack frames at a certain point in time during the execution of a program. When a program is run, memory is often dynamically allocated in two places; the stack and the heap. Memory is continuously allocated on a stack but not on a heap, thus reflective of their names. Stack also refers to a programming construct, thus to differentiate it, this stack is referred to as the program's runtime stack. Technically, once a block of memory has been allocated on the stack, it cannot be easily removed as there can be other blocks of memory that were allocated before it. Each time a function is called in a program, a block of memory is allocated on top of the runtime stack called the activation record (or stack pointer.) At a high level, an activation record allocates memory for the function's parameters and local variables declared in the function.
Systems and methods for generating an enhanced error message
Systems and methods for generating an enhanced error message are provided. An example method includes: receiving one or more raw error messages. The one or more raw error messages include one or more stack traces. The method further includes matching at least one raw error message of the one or more raw error messages to one or more error rules from a plurality of error rules. The one or more error rules include regular expression patterns. The method further includes parsing the at least one raw error message, based on the one or more matched error rules from the plurality of error rules; and generating one or more enhanced error messages, based on the at least one parsed raw error messages. The one or more enhanced error messages include one or more natural language sentences. The method further includes embedding the one or more enhanced error messages into a website.

System and method for threat detection based on stack trace and kernel sensors
A method and system for threat detection and analysis is disclosed herein. The method includes monitoring at least one thread associated with at least one process on a computing system. The method further includes detecting specific system calls associated with at least one process at kernel level. The specific system calls are analyzed by applying a filter to the system calls sequence feature set associated with the specific system calls for detecting one or more events of interest. A full stack trace capture of at least one process is requested if the system calls sequence feature set is filtered and the one or more events of interest are detected. A first level monitoring is provided to the computing system, which includes processing and analyzing the captured full stack trace by a machine learning (ML) stack trace analyzer to generate a first verdict for threat detection and analysis.

Stack trace analysis model
Systems and methods for detecting a malware injection interested processes. The method includes identifying one or more trusted processes, monitoring at least one thread associated with the trusted processes using at least one control point, detecting activity at the at least one thread based on the at least one control point and determining a timestamp of the detected activity, receiving from the trusted processes at least one execution stack corresponding to the timestamp and indicating the at least one control point used to monitor the at least one thread, applying a first malware detector to the at least one execution stack to generate a first verdict, collecting the first verdict and auxiliary information corresponding to the trusted processes at the given timestamp, and applying a second malware detector to the first verdict and the auxiliary information to generate a second verdict.

Program call stack creation method and unwind stack method and apparatus
ActiveUS12650857B2Software testing/debuggingProgram loading/initiatingCall stackSoftware engineering
This application discloses a program call stack creation method and apparatus, and an unwind stack method and apparatus. The call stack creation method includes: obtaining a first program, where the first program includes a first function, in a process of calling a runtime library to run the first program, adding a second function and creating a call stack, where the call stack includes a first stack frame, a second stack frame, and a third stack frame that are respectively corresponding to the first function, the second function, and a third function. An unwind stack performance can be improved to a maximum extent without affecting a non-stack trace scenario.

System and methods of generating previews for content migration
A computer-implemented method is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining a stack trace associated with an error detected in connection with execution of a computer program by a processor; determining a location of the error within source code of the computer program based on the stack trace, wherein the source code contains a template code section and a custom code section; generating an error message for the error, wherein the generating includes: in response to determining that the error is located in the custom code section, appending a first representation of the stack trace to the error message; and in response to determining that the error is located in the template code section, formatting the error message to indicate a generic template code error, and presenting the error message via a computing device.

Application vulnerability score based on stack traces
A computing system for identifying and scoring problems associated with call stacks. The computing system identifies call stacks associated with an application and determines a problem occurs in the application. The computer system compares a call stack of a first set of applications with a call stack of a second set of applications, wherein the call stack of the first set of applications includes the problem and the call stack of the second set of applications does not include the problem. The computer system generates a score indicating a likelihood that a particular call stack caused the problem based on whether the particular call stack is included in the call stack of the first set of applications, the call stack of the second set of applications, or both. The computing system generates a notification comprising the score indicating the likelihood that the particular call stack caused the problem.

Real-time shellcode detection and prevention
A method, storage system, and computer program product for protecting a computing device, including a processor and memory, and connected to a storage device that stores a set of one or more files. A call to a function designated for execution by the processor is detected, and a stack trace for the call to the designated function is generated in memory. When the stack trace detects a stack frame containing a return address that references a shellcode region in memory, where the shellcode region contains executable code that was not loaded from any given file on the storage device, the referenced executable code is then compared against a list of malicious shellcodes. Finally, when a match is found between the referenced executable code and one of the malicious shellcodes in the list, preventive action is initiated.
