package: linux-2.6 severity: wishlist tags: security there are now several security hardening kernel patches available in the debian archive (e.g. execshield and grsecurity). it would be great if these patches were incorporated into the default kernel packages.
this would go a long way toward reducing the impact of security threats to the majority of end users. most users will never consider applying those patches or building/using a non-vanilla debian kernel. thank you for your consideration. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
