Random stack, data and executable address spaces #34

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
For extra security against buffer overflows, we could implement
random addresses for the stack, data and text memory regions in any program
executed by the ProcessServer. We need a random number generator for this.

I guess this also depends on things like relocation, etc. Even though you folks 
probably 
want to support 32-bit x86 as well, x86-64 makes this a lot easier.
