> RFP: hardened-malloc -- hardened memory allocator > * Package name : hardened-malloc > Version : 2.0 > Upstream Author : Daniel Micay > * URL : https://github.com/GrapheneOS/hardened_malloc > * License : MIT > Programming Lang: C > Description : hardened memory allocator > This is a security-focused general purpose memory allocator providing > the malloc API along with various extensions. It provides substantial > hardening against heap corruption vulnerabilities. The security-focused > design also leads to much less metadata overhead and memory waste from > fragmentation than a more traditional allocator design. It aims to > provide decent overall performance with a focus on long-term performance > and memory usage rather than allocator micro-benchmarks. It offers > scalability via a configurable number of entirely independently arenas, > with the internal locking within arenas further divided up per size > class. It can be added as a preloaded library using /etc/ld.so.preload. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=945455 Cheers, Patrick
