[I] A user-space utility to control PaX flags
[T] paxctl is a tool that allows PaX flags to be modified on a per-binary basis.
[T] PaX is part of common security-enhancing kernel patches like grsecurity and
[T] RSBAC. Your system needs to be running a properly patched and configured
[T] kernel for this program to have any effect.
[T] The PaX patch for the Linux kernel provides two ways to harden a system:
[T] 1. Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), which provides randomization
[T] of the addressing scheme of all data loaded into memory.
[T] When an application is built as a Position Independent Executable (PIE),
[T] PaX is also able to randomize the addresses of the application base
[T] additionally.
[T] 2. Non-Executable Memory, which prevents a common form of attack where
[T] executable code is inserted into memory by an attacker.
