/dev/port hacking

Postby pahtiv » Thu Sep 30, 2004 6:24 am

hello,

grsecurity claims to be able to stop /dev/port hacking (which can be used to modify the kernel memory, so very useful for rootkits). but I cannot find any paper concerning /dev/port hacking.

can anybody tell me any information on this technique?

many thanks.

Does it not just remove access to it?
