Modular analysis of polyglot applications is challenging because heap object flows across language boundaries must be resolved. The state-of-the-art analyses for polyglot applications have two fundamental limitations. First, they assume explicit boundaries between the host and the guest language to determine inter-language dataflows. Second, they rely on specific analyses of the host and guest languages. The former assumption is impractical concerning recent advancements in polyglot programming techniques, while the latter disregards advances in pointer analysis of the underlying languages. In this work, we propose to extend existing pointer analyses with a novel summary specialization technique so that points-to set across language boundaries can be unified. Our novel technique leverages various combinations of host and guest analyses with minor modifications. We demonstrate the efficacy and generalizability of our approach by evaluating it with two polyglot language models: Java-C communication via Android's NDK and Java-Python communication in GraalVM.
