Linux kernel development process thwarts
subversion attempt 11/06/2003 12:18 PM
In a stunning verification of Eric S. Raymond's open source adage, "Many eyes make all bugs shallow," an attempt to place malicious "backdoor" code in the Linux kernel 2.6 development tree was detected and rejected almost immediately. The code, if it had become part of the final kernel release, would have allowed a remote user to take control of machines running that Linux kernel version. Unauthorized code snippets, often called Easter Eggs, are common in closed-source programs but are relatively rare in the open source world. It's easy for developers to hide either humorous or malicious code in programs whose inner workings are hidden, but as this Linux kernel incident shows, the open source development process carries a degree of built-in immunity to this kind of problem.

OSDL: Linux center of gravity? 01/09/2004 09:58 PM
NewsForge learned recently, as a result of electronic conversations with an anonymous (but well-known) Linux kernel hacker, that chatter among some kernel hackers reflects a degree of distrust of OSDL, the Open Source Development Lab. This report airs the major issues identified in those conversations and allows OSDL the opportunity to respond to them. We also asked IDC analyst Dan Kusnetzky and two kernel hackers who work for OSDL, Linus Torvalds and Andrew Morton, to weigh in with their own comments on OSDL's role and behavior.

to Linux 02/10/2004 02:48 AM
In a phone interview Friday, Open Source Development Labs (OSDL) CEO Stu Cohen said, "As Linux continues to grow, Microsoft will port some of their applications to run on Linux." There has been speculation about this for years, and this is still speculation, but Cohen is head of an organization that says it is "increasingly being recognized as the center-of-gravity for the Linux industry," and is rapidly proving himself at least as effective a Linux marketer as the freckle-faced boy in IBM's Linux ads, so his speculations carry more weight than most.

Openwall Linux kernel patch 2.4.30-ow1
(Linux 2.4 branch)

Openwall Linux kernel patch 2.4.30-ow1
(Linux 2.4 branch) 04/08/2005 10:32 AM
The Openwall Linux kernel patch is a collection of security "hardening" features for the Linux kernel. In addition to the new features, some versions of the patch contain various security fixes. The "hardening" features of the patch, while not a complete method of protection, provide an extra layer of security against the easier ways to exploit certain classes of vulnerabilities and/or reduce the impact of those vulnerabilities. The patch can also add a little bit more privacy to the system by restricting access to parts of /proc so that users may not see what others are doing.

Kernel Mode Linux 2.4.30_001 (For Linux
2.4 branch)

Kernel Mode Linux 2.4.30_001 (For Linux
2.4 branch) 04/05/2005 11:56 AM
Kernel Mode Linux is a technology which enables the execution of user programs in a kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user programs can access kernel address space directly. Unlike kernel modules, user programs are executed as ordinary processes (except for their privilege level), so scheduling and paging are performed as usual. Although it seems dangerous, the safety of the kernel can be ensured through such methods as static type checking, software fault isolation, and so forth.

This version was merged with the 2.4.30 Linux kernel.
