-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 To all, I was wondering regarding the killing of a zombie process. As far as I know, a zombied process is inherited by root when it's parent is killed. The kernel periodically calls wait() which reaps the zombie process and frees its memory. I was wondering if a possible attack could be mounted by the zombie process when it is inherited by root.
