This email is to inform you of release '1.9.5-rc3' of 'grsecurity' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found at http://freshmeat.net/projects/grsecurity/ The changes in this release are as follows: This release includes code cleanups and bugfixes, and a new feature that protects capability-aware processes from leaking full root privileges with execve or (f)chmod +s. Gradm, the userspace ACL administration utility, has been updated to 1.3-rc3. Project description: grsecurity is a complete security system for Linux 2.4 that implements a detection/prevention/containment strategy. It prevents most forms of address space modification, confines programs with least privilege via its process-based ACL system, hardens syscalls, and provides many of the OpenBSD randomness features. It has auditing capabilities and a netfilter module designed to thwart portscans and OS fingerprinting.
