"For each distribution, we downloaded all its packages, and analyzed the hardening schemes of their enclosed binaries... Our findings confirm that even basic hardening schemes, such as stack canaries and position independent code, are not fully adopted." Is this finding that basic hardening techniques are not applied to every available binary? I would expect some hardening techniques to break some binaries.
