You appear to be quoting[1], but you left off a bit. To edit it a bit: "Use a security module, either by using something like SELinux (...), or write your own little security module that does it." I have done the latter. I don't need to integrate this into grsecurity because grsecurity already has these protections. It is Openwall and grsecurity that I'm using as the starting point for this attempt at upstreaming the protections. -Kees [1] http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/8/56 -- Kees Cook Ubuntu Security Team -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
