Abstract:
A computing device includes technologies for securing indirect addresses (e.g., pointers) that are used by a processor to perform memory access (e.g., read/write/execute) operations. The computing device encodes the indirect address using metadata and a cryptographic algorithm. The metadata may be stored in an unused portion of the indirect address.
