Kernel-mode Hardware-enforced Stack Protection is a security feature introduced in Windows 11 22H2 that protects systems from various memory attacks, such as stack buffer overflows.

Control Flow Guard (CFG) is Microsoft's implementation of control flow integrity in Visual Studio 2015. Control flow integrity (CFI) is an exploit mitigation like stack cookies, DEP, and ASLR. Like ...

The prevalence of memory corruption bugs in the past decades resulted in numerous defenses, such as stack canaries, control flow integrity (CFI), and memory-safe languages. These defenses can prevent ...
