[PATCH V36 21/29] Lock down /proc/kcore

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>

Disallow access to /proc/kcore when the kernel is locked down to prevent
access to cryptographic data. This is limited to lockdown
confidentiality mode and is still permitted in integrity mode.
