2011-06-07MAINTAINERS: Saying goodbye to David BrownellGrant Likely
We had to say goodbye when David passed away recently. David had a huge impact on our community, both personally in the lives of the people he worked with, and technically in the design and maintenance of several subsystems. He is greatly missed. He also leaves behind a number of much loved subsystems now orphaned. This patch updates the MAINTAINERS file for the areas that David was responsible for and adds an entry for him to the CREDITS file.

2010-10-01MAINTAINERS: update matroxfb & ncpfs statusPetr Vandrovec
I moved couple years ago, so let's update my email and snail mail. And I do not have any access to Matrox hardware anymore, and I'm quite unresponsive to matroxfb bug reports (sorry Alan), so saying that I'm maintainer is a bit far fetched. For ncpfs I do not use ncpfs in my daily life either, but at least I can test that one, so I can stay listed here for odd fixes.

2007-05-08proc: maps protectionKees Cook
The /proc/pid/ "maps", "smaps", and "numa_maps" files contain sensitive information about the memory location and usage of processes. Issues: - maps should not be world-readable, especially if programs expect any kind of ASLR protection from local attackers. - maps cannot just be 0400 because "-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" makes glibc check the maps when %n is in a *printf call, and a setuid(getuid()) process wouldn't be able to read its own maps file. (For reference see http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/22/150) - a system-wide toggle is needed to allow prior behavior in the case of non-root applications that depend on access to the maps contents. This change implements a check using "ptrace_may_attach" before allowing access to read the maps contents. To control this protection, the new knob /proc/sys/kernel/maps_protect has been added, with corresponding updates to the procfs documentation.
