After analysis of the memory allocation behavior of Java programs, it is concluded that about 99% of the allocations are of sizes less than 1024 bytes. The analysis also shows that most of the ...

Memory allocation issues are only a subset of the problems common to C/C++ that cause potential bugs and vulnerabilities, but they are a large subset and are very annoying to track down and fix.

However, dynamic memory allocation is rare and only affects limited parts of the program, unlike when it is the default behavior in C/C++. Thus, adopting memory-safe languages is the most appropriate ...

The National Security Agency (NSA) is urging developers to shift to memory safe languages – such as C#, Go, Java, Ruby, Rust, and Swift – to protect their code from remote code execution or ...
