摘要

若攻击者想攻击云平台上某一目标虚拟机，则其必须与目标虚拟机同驻。基于此，提出一种虚拟机同驻方法，通过构建云环境中自适应的隐蔽信道，结合基于隐蔽信道的虚拟机同驻检测方法和自动化虚拟机洪泛策略，并在国内某知名商业云平台上进行同驻验证。实验表明，所构建的自适应隐蔽信道传输正确率可高达95%以上；所提出的同驻检测方法置信度高，误检率不超过5‰。同驻方法不会破坏云平台本身隔离性且具有一定的通用性，但潜在威胁极大，亟需重视与防范。

Abstract

If the attacker wants to compromise a target virtual machine on a cloud platform

the malicious virtual machine must be co-resident with the target.Based on this

a virtual machine co-residency method was proposed.The method combined a co-residency detection scheme based on covert channel construction and an automatic virtual machine flooding strategy

and was evaluated on a well-known domestic cloud platform.Experiment shows that the adaptive covert channel can achieve accuracies of 95%

the proposed detection scheme has strong robustness whose false positive rate is less than 5 ‰

the proposed method is versatile and keeps the virtualization isolation barrier intact

which has great potential threat and should be paid great attention and precaution.
