Bug#215624: locales: no_NO.UTF-8 generation killed by grsec
Package: locales
Version: 2.3.2-7
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
locale-gen croaks trying to generate my locale. Now from syslog
I read:
Oct 13 20:56:41 emma kernel: PAX: terminating task:
/usr/bin/localedef(localedef):5208, uid/euid: 0/0, EIP: BFF4C330, ESP:
BFF4C21C
Oct 13 20:56:41 emma kernel: PAX: bytes at EIP: b9 d0 c8 f4 bf e9 86 93
12 48 00 00 0c ae 08 08 06 00 00 00
So, I take this is because locale-gen is trying to execute a memory
page, and therefore the process is killed by grsec.
Is it necessary for locale-gen to access memory this way?
Kind regards,
Lars Bahner.
