Welcome to the Memory Safety Menagerie! This web page is a virtual catalog of research papers about memory safety. I hope that it provides a good starting point for researchers and students.
In an attempt to organize the vast literature on the topic, I have created "sub-menageries" that collect together papers on similar topics. Organization is a tricky thing (just ask the guy who discovered the platypus), so I suggest perusing the menagerie to get a feel for what is inside.
