Buffer overflows are the most serious threat to the computer security. In this paper, the principle of the heap overflows is discussed, and a method of memory management is proposed, which can perform self management to the memory. With this method, the heap overflows can be prevented effectively.
Key words： buffer overflows; heap; memory management; secure program
