This is a fascinating topic, are there any practical real life implementations of this?
- mburee 4y agoOpenBSD?
- t-3 4y agoIt's worth noting that the new mitigations discussed in the talk are only available in -current. They'll be in the next release though (which should be coming in the next few months).
- tete 4y agoApril being the best guess currently, though end of likely, because May 1st is the usual goal. The best guess being April, because it's what the (non-finished) 7.3 page says for the month right now. Of course that's not a guarantee, but it makes it likely. Also a branch of 7.3 already exists.
- rsaxvc 4y agoThis presentation is an overview of many different mitigations spanning ~27 years. Some are quite widely implemented. I'm less familiar with the newer stuff, but here's some I've run into. No-exec stacks: some UNIX machines, tons of systems today. w^x: win xp+, Linux, several RTOS, OpenBSD, lots of others aslr: requires MMU. OpenBSD, contemporary Windows(but partially opt in?), Linux. X-only: Arm has supported X-only for their embedded stuff for a while, and it's fairly lightweight, though you lose PC-relative loads.
