** Description changed:
- [Unlimiting the stack not longer disables ASLR]
+ The arch_pick_mmap_layout function in arch/x86/mm/mmap.c in the Linux
+ kernel through 4.5.2 does not properly randomize the legacy base
+ address, which makes it easier for local users to defeat the intended
+ restrictions on the ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE flag, and bypass the ASLR
+ protection mechanism for a setuid or setgid program, by disabling stack-
+ consumption resource limits.
