Subject: [PATCH 14/16] Restrict /dev/mem and /dev/kmem when the kernel is locked down
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2016 21:48:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <147933293772.19316.6635131764009392253.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <147933283664.19316.12454053022687659937.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>
From: Matthew Garrett <matthew.garrett@nebula.com>
Allowing users to write to address space makes it possible for the kernel to
be subverted, avoiding module loading restrictions. Prevent this when the
kernel has been locked down.
