    Same workaround works here as with dirty frag. Just disable those kernel modules.

    It’s frustrating that there isn’t much of an effort to turn Linux into more of a microkernel. Instead the kernel just keeps getting bigger with even more subsystems and modules that can be exploited.

      Systems built on microkernels exist, you know. See Redox.

    At this point we might as well just run everything as root anyway

      It is already solved. The dirtyfrag patch fixes it already.

    I think you might be able to deactivate this one by turning off XFRM support in a custom-configured kernel, at the cost of losing some types of tunneling. Not going to actually test that, though.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
