  • Memory corruption protection by tracing memory
    Patent number: 9983914
    Abstract: This application discloses a computing system configured to request that an operating system implemented by the computing system allocate a virtual address space, which is designated for use by an application implemented by the computing system, to a memory verification tool implemented by the computing system. The computing system is configured to utilize the virtual address space to form a memory pool having multiple protectable slots available for allocation to the application. The computing system is further configured to intercept a memory allocation request issued by the application to the operating system of the computing system, and allocate at least one of the protectable slots in the memory pool to the application in response to the intercepted memory allocation request.
