Hi Nico;
Thanks for the suggestion, I was not aware the libjsig.so could be loaded like
that. I'm assuming you mean a loadlibrary("jsig"); in the .init. It would
also work I suppose to just add the .init to the original shared library going
forwards too, instead of putting a wrapper library in-between? I'll give that
a try.
Regards;
Hank

Subject: Re: JNI Signal Chaining and OWASP (Security)
You could simply move the original JNI DLL out of the way and replace it with a
wrapper that does the signal handler setup in a .init section and otherwise has
stubs for all entry points that simply call the real (now
renamed) DLL.
In Solaris/Illumos we'd call that wrapper a "filter", and Solaris/ Illumos has
tools to make building a filter easier, but the concept is general enough and
you can build the same sort of thing on Linux and Windows just as well.
Again, this is still code injection. It's still likely to cause false alerts.
Again, I recommend taking this up with the vendors of the relevant security
analysis tools.
