...It has been developed for security researchers and enthusiasts to improve their skills in kernel-level exploitation. HEVD offers a range of vulnerabilities, from simple stack buffer overflows to more complex issues such as use-after-free, pool buffer overflows, and race conditions. This allows researchers to explore exploitation techniques for each implemented vulnerability.

rtl2832_entropyd is a program that is designed to feed entropy into the linux /dev/random kernel entropy pool. It automatically forks and runs as a daemon, unless one of the testing options, -o or -t, are selected. Then it never forks. To use it, you need an rtl2832 USB dongle. They are relatively cheap (< $10 on ebay), and are actually used to listen to a broad range of radio transmissions. This application exploits the radio noise in the atmosphere to extract entropy. ...

This project aims to pool together as many kernel projects as possible, ironing out conflicts where possible, so that experimental kernel projects can get greater exposure, safely, and so that those projects can be tested under much more varied conditions
