Subject: [PATCH v5 11/12] S.A.R.A.: /proc/*/mem write limitation
Date: Sat,  6 Jul 2019 12:54:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1562410493-8661-12-git-send-email-s.mesoraca16@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1562410493-8661-1-git-send-email-s.mesoraca16@gmail.com>

Prevent a task from opening, in "write" mode, any /proc/*/mem
file that operates on the task's mm.
A process could use it to overwrite read-only memory, bypassing
S.A.R.A. restrictions.
