Hi Michael, Michael Gilbert wrote: It builds these binary packages: checksec - A script that reveals standard security features currently in use [...] This script is provides useful information about which security features have been compiled in There's a similar script already in the archive: hardening-check, from the hardening-includes package. Please talk to Kees to come up with the best solution (either checksec is uploaded and and hardening-check dropped, or checksec is not uploaded and missing features added to hardening-check, or hardening-check is uploaded and both co-exist in the archive.)

Maybe I should have said enabled rather than compiled in. The script displays which security features are active in ELF files, and more recently, it also checks for various kernel security features.

RFS: checksec
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package checksec. * Package name: checksec Version : 1.3.1-1 Upstream Author : Tobias Klein t...@trapkit.de * URL : http://www.trapkit.de/tools/checksec.html * License : BSD Programming Lang: Bash It builds these binary packages: checksec - A script that reveals standard security features currently in use The package appears to be lintian clean. The upload would fix these bugs: 586472 My motivation for maintaining this package is: This script is provides useful information about which security features have been compiled in, and I think that would be useful for developers to check their packages to make sure they are using such capabilities when available. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/checksec - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/checksec/checksec_1.3.1-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
