Description
Introduction:
- grsecurity-installer
- (a fork of GitHub - rickard2/grsecurity-Debian-Installer: Install script for grsecurity for Debian environments)
- Used by and useful for the Linux distribution Whonix, which is primarily run inside virtual machines
TODO:
- use grsecurity sources from Debian repository (not from grsecurity.net because then we can avoid custom gpg verification)
- package needs more testing and eventually various fixes
- the ‘make menuconfig’ which currently needs manual interaction needs to be automated (preseeded by a configuration file most likely?)
- sane, secure, useful kernel compilation configuration file required
- never mind MPROTECT for now (can be disabled)
- test if it works inside Qubes and fix if required
- test if it works inside Qubes-Whonix and fix if required
possibly helpful:
- GitHub - coldhakca/coldkernel: Hardened kernel generation - Deprecated - grsecurity for xen
- http://www.webcitation.org/6hG9TVlld - previous work and previous ticket discussion
