Bug#516488: RFH: kernel-patch-exec-shield -- protection against stack smashing and other attacks
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
This kernel patch provides exec-shield, a security feature for the
Linux kernel on i386 (it is not relevant for x86_64). The patch is
present in Fedora kernels, which is also the upstream maintainer.
Since I hardly use i386 machines anymore, I need help with any of the
following:
* Co-maintaining the package
* Testing patches for new versions of the Debian kernel
The package is maintained in the collab-maint svn repository.
