Compiler provenance is significant in investigating the source-level indicators of binary code, like development-environment, source compiler, and optimization settings. Not only does compiler provenance analysis have important security applications in malware and vulnerability analysis, but it is also very challenging to extract useful artifacts from binary when high-level language constructs are missing. Previous works applied machine-learning techniques to predict the source compiler of binaries. However, most of the work is done on the binaries compiled on Linux operating system. We highlight the importance and need to explore Windows compilers and the complicated binaries compiled on the latest versions of these …
