Code Injection Detection
MAD continuously monitors the app's runtime environment to identify attempts at code injection at runtime, a practice in which a malicious actor introduces arbitrary binary code or unauthorized shared libraries into the process's memory space. This type of attack aims to alter the application's legitimate behavior, bypass security controls, or execute malicious payloads stealthily.
Technical Mechanism: Unlike detections focused on specific instrumentation or hooks, MAD observes the dynamic loading of modules and the memory mappings of the running process, looking for anomalies that indicate the presence of foreign or unauthorized components. Upon identifying signs of code injection or improper libraries, MAD immediately applies the configured protection policies and reports the event to the Command Center, preserving the application's integrity and reducing the risk of runtime compromise.
