Line 5:
Overfilling a buffer allocated on the stack is more likely to influence program execution than overfilling a buffer on the [[dynamic memory allocation|heap]] because the stack contains the return addresses for all active function calls. However, similar implementation-specific protections also exist against heap-based overflows.
There are several implementations of buffer overflow protection, including those for the [[GNU Compiler Collection]], [[LLVM]], [[Microsoft Visual Studio]], and other compilers.
