Kaladix Linux pre-0.4 (Prerelease) by Kaladis (http://freshmeat.net/users/kaladis/) Saturday, September 22nd 2001 17:36 Categories: Security, Security :: Cryptography, System :: Operating System Kernels, System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux, System :: Software Distribution, System :: Systems Administration About: Kaladix Linux is designed to be a hyper-secure Linux distribution. It comes shipped with Mandatory Access Control and Access Control Lists (RSBAC), extensive logging facilities (Syslog-NG), protection against format string vulnerabilities, buffer overflows, and /tmp race condition vulnerabilities (Openwall, Formatguard, Libsafe 2). Nearly all daemons are chrooted by default, cryptography support is integrated, encryption of partitions is supported, strong firewall and intrusion detection systems are included, both the stack and the heap are non-executable, and very tight permissions are set by default. Changes: Apache 1.3.20 in a chroot jail with mod_perl and mod_ssl, timed security analysis via a tailored AIDE configuration, stronger permissions, and lots of improvements.
