A Generic Methodology for the Modular Verification of Security Protocol Implementations. (arXiv:2212.02626v1 [cs.CR])

Security protocols are essential building blocks of modern IT systems. Subtle
flaws in their design or implementation may compromise the security of entire
systems. It is, thus, important to prove the absence of such flaws through
formal verification. Much existing work focuses on the verification of protocol
*models*, which is not sufficient to show that their *implementations* are
actually secure. Verification techniques for protocol implementations (e.g.,
via code generation or model extraction) typically impose severe restrictions
on the used programming …
