Subject: [kernel-hardening] LWN: Reactive vs. pro-active kernel security
Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2011 00:09:57 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110721200957.GA4124@openwall.com> (raw)

Hi,

Last week's LWN has a story on the kernel hardening work by Vasiliy,
Kees, and Dan - as well as on the difficulty in getting such patches
accepted upstream:

http://lwn.net/Articles/451405/

Of interest are the links to similar LWN stories on things that Kees and
Dan worked on (which Vasiliy thus excluded from his GSoC work so far).
These were symlink in +t directory hardening and kernel address non-leaks.

Alexander
