Abstract

Memory corruption detection technologies are described. A processing system can include a processor core including a register to store an address of a memory corruption detection (MCD) table. The processor core can receive, from an application, a memory store request to store data in a first portion of a contiguous memory block of the memory object of a memory. The memory store request comprises a first pointer indicating a first location of the first portion in the memory block to store the data. The processor core can retrieve, from the MCD table, a write protection indicator that indicates a first protection mode of the first portion. The processor core can send, to the application, a fault message when a fault event associated with the first portion occurs based on the first protection mode of the first portion.
