Hence, this package disables this feature by shipping the /etc/sysctl.d/nf_conntrack_helper.conf configuration file. + + Kernel symbols in /proc/kallsyms are hidden to prevent malware from + reading them and using them to learn more about what to attack on your system. + + Kexec is disabled as it can be used for live patching of the running kernel. + + The BPF JIT compiler is restricted to the root user and is hardened. + + ASLR effectiveness for mmap is increased. + + The ptrace system call is restricted to the root user only. + + The TCP/IP stack is hardened. + + This package makes some data spoofing attacks harder. + + SACK is disabled as it is commonly exploited and is rarely used. + + This package disables the merging of slabs of similar sizes to prevent an + attacker from exploiting them. + + Sanity checks, redzoning, and memory poisoning are enabled. + + The kernel now panics on uncorrectable errors in ECC memory which could + be exploited. + + Kernel Page Table Isolation is enabled to mitigate Meltdown and increase + KASLR effectiveness. + + SMT is disabled as it can be used to exploit the MDS vulnerability. + + All mitigations for the MDS vulnerability are enabled. + + DCCP, SCTP, TIPC and RDS are blacklisted as they are rarely used and may have + unknown vulnerabilities.
