Tracing JavaScript Value Origins with Breakpoint-Driven Heap Search (BDHS) and Live Object Search

Francesco Cavallarin · wirebrowser

Presents Breakpoint-Driven Heap Search, which takes repeated Chrome DevTools Protocol heap snapshots at user-land step-out boundaries and finds where a target value or structure first appears. Wirebrowser combines temporal origin tracing with structural similarity, live-object search and runtime patching.
