|

|
||||
This is a standalone implementation of fortify source[0]. It is libc-agnostic
|
||||
and simply overlays the system headers by using the #include_next extension found
|
||||
in GCC and clang. It was initially designed to be used on musl[1] based Linux

Features
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
- It is portable, works on *BSD and Linux systems.
|
||||
- It is portable, works on *BSD, Linux and possibly other systems.
|
||||
- It will only trap non-conformant programs. This means that fortify
|
||||
level 2 is treated in the same way as level 1.
|
||||
- Avoids making function calls when UB has already been invoked. This
|
||||
is handled by using __builtin_trap().
|
||||
- Support for out-of-bounds read interfaces, such as send(), write(),
|
||||
fwrite() etc.
|
||||
- No ABI is enforced. All of the check functions are inlined into the
|
||||
resulting binary.

Sample usage
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
A plan for integrating fortify into a system is still under discussion.
|
||||
If you want to quickly test it, you can try something like the following:
|
||||
|
||||
cat > fgets.c <<EOF
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
int
|
||||
main(void)
|
||||
{
|
||||
char buf[BUFSIZ];
|
||||
fgets(buf, sizeof(buf) + 1, stdin);
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
cc -I<path-to-fortify-include-dir> -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=1 -O1 fgets.c
|
||||
./a.out
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, the program will crash.
