Is there any HIPS software with Buffer overflow protection

Buffer overflow exploits are a grossly understated threat.

 

Not a classical HIPS, but Threatfire blocks buffer overflows; I think Prevx does too but not completely sure.

If you dont mind a separate program, you could consider Comodo's Memory Firewall.

 

Turning on data execution protection for all programs prevents buffer overflows, at least according to Gkweb. It only works on 64 bit capable processors.

 

Both core duo and core 2 duo processors have hardware DEP. Enabling DEP for all programs and services in windows will protect against the exploit.

Also, defenceplus is an app which specifically protects against this exploit.

 

Hello,

If you quote that comment from there :
http://www.firewallleaktester.com/docs/Securing Windows - PART 2.pdf

I also say (page 9) that "DEP is not fool-proof". It exists different kinds of overflow methods, DEP prevents the most common ones. If you want to go further to protect you against any type of overflow, it seems that Comodo is doing a software to handle that, although it is in Beta right now :

They have made a testing app to make you able to test the overflow methods : COMODO BO Tester :

On Vista x64 DEP blocks all tests except two.
