Security is becoming a major issue in our highly networked and computerized era. Malicious code detection is an essential step towards securing the execution of applications in a highly inter-connected context. In this paper, we present a formal definition of Java dynamic semantics. This semantics has been used as a basis to develop efficient, rigorous and provably correct static analysis tools and a certifying compiler aimed to detect and prevent the presence of malicious code in Java applications. We propose a small step operational semantics of a large subset for Java. The latter includes features that have not been completely addressed in the related work or addressed in another semantics style. We provide a fully-fledged semantic handling of exceptions, reachable statements, modifiers and class initialization.
