If you are looking for one to use with C++ I recomend the 
LeakTracer. It is fairly nice, althought quite dificult to install,
at least to me it was. The page is:
http://www.andreasen.org/LeakTracer/

P.S. No graphical interface, no one that I know of.

looks like those first 7 matches should e good places to start looking.
You can use apt-cache show  to get more detailed info about
each.

There are various free bounds checkers for Linux. The only one I ever
used was Electric Fence and that was a LONG time ago. I think there
are others.

If you want a commercial product you can look at Parasofts
Insure++. I've had reasonable success with it on Debian. I don't
believe it's cheap, but I don't know for sure because we have a site
license.
