ASAN

ASAN, or AddressSanitizer, is a tool used in software development to detect memory errors in programs. It helps programmers identify issues like memory leaks, buffer overflows, and use-after-free errors, which can lead to crashes or security vulnerabilities. By adding special checks to the code, ASAN can highlight these problems during testing, allowing developers to fix them before releasing the software. This improves the overall quality and safety of applications, making them more stable and secure for users.
