Phoronix: Linux 6.1 Feature Would Have Caught All memcpy Based Buffer Overflows Of Recent Years
A kernel hardening security improvement on the way for Linux 6.1 is the ability to provide warning of possible memcpy() based overflows. Right now this is only a warning but it's work towards being able to address "trivially detectable" buffer overflow conditions within the kernel and in the future may be able to block such overflows from happening...
