# Hardening
# Make some classes of vulnerabilities unexploitable in case one is discovered.
#
# This is a workaround for Ubuntu bug #691722, the default -fstack-protector causes
# -fstack-protector-all to be ignored unless -fno-stack-protector is used first.
# see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.5/+bug/691722
HARDENING=-fno-stack-protector
# Stack Canaries
# Put numbers at the beginning of each stack frame and check that they are the same.
# If a stack buffer if overflowed, it writes over the canary number and then on return
# when that number is checked, it won't be the same and the program will exit with
# a "Stack smashing detected" error instead of being exploited.

# Make some important things such as the global offset table read only as soon as
# the dynamic linker is finished building it. This will prevent overwriting of addresses
