In the 3-4 decades of the security industry, testing signature files to see if they trigger a corner case system crash has never been practiced. You and others are proclaiming yourselves to be experts in an area of technology you have no ex

it sounds to me like complex instructions are unavoidable unless the use case is restricted to microcontrollers. A modern ISA should CPU feature flags that allow implementers to disable complex and expensive instruction sets. Would it be fa
