Application: Secure-Linux Patch The Secure-Linux patch adds a few security features to the kernel which, while not a complete method of protection, will stop most of the 'cookbook' buffer overflow exploits cold. It also adds the option of restricting the use of symlinks in +t (temp) directories which fixes most tmp-race exploits as well. It can also add a little bit more privacy to the system by restricting access to parts of /proc to root so that users may not see who else is logged on or what they're doing.   Homepage http://www.openwall.com/linux/ Download http://www.openwall.com/linux/linux-2.2.14-ow2.tar.gz Alt Download ftp://ftp.openwall.com/linux/linux-2.2.14-ow2.tar.gz Author Not Shown <solar_AT_false_DOT_C.O.M> Version 2.2.16 Licence GPL Source Yes Environment Console Status Stable We are currently updating this section of the site.
