I am looking for a programming language that is fast like C and C++ and has a garbage collector and is not prone to buffer overflows. I am looking for something between Java/C# and C/C++. Is there such a language?

Checking for buffer overflows and collecting garbage has a cost: if you need these features, then you will not get the speed of C/C++. Tradeoff.
Java and C# are very, very close to C++ speed in most types of applications, so unless you need something very specific, I suggest you go with one of those 2 languages.
If you just want a garbage collector for C++, you can get one here.
