According to older paper [0] ECC can also be bypassed after reverse-engineering the mitigation in DDR3 DIMMs. Also:

Previous work [1] showed that due to the large number of bit flips in current DDR4 devices, ECC cannot provide complete protection against Rowhammer but makes exploitation harder.

- FpUser 5y agoWhile it can not protect from bit flips it can most likely warn about attack in progress due to a large number of bit flips.
