Secure Integer Library
The CERT/CC has released a beta version of a secure integer library for the C Programming Language. The library is available for download from the CERT/CC Secure Coding Initiative web page at: http://www.cert.org/secure-coding/
The purpose of this library is to provide a collection of utility functions that can assist software developers in writing C programs that are free from common integer problems such as integer overflow, integer truncation, and sign errors that are a common source of software vulnerabilities.
