Memory Protection
Registered by
Kees Cook
Many program memory protection mechanisms exist to proactively foil security vulnerability exploits. Edgy is already using several (heap and stack segment protection, stack and ldd randomization), but we need more. We will research exposed attack vectors, their possible protection techniques, and the impact of implementing selected protections.
