Comment (by eschnett):

This would be straightforward to implement in PUGH and Carpet. In Carpet, the canaries would be initialized when the memory is allocated, and would be checked regularly (e.g. during poison checking), not just before deallocating.

I doubt that OpenMP provides its own malloc function. I expect all memory allocation (including operator new from C++) to go through libc's malloc.
