The Linux Security Workgroup has put together this page in an effort to bring the Linux security community together in hardening the Linux Kernel and to help prevent duplication of efforts. There are a number of active Linux Kernel hardening projects and this page gives details on some of them. If you have an update for this page, please email the kernel-hardening mailing list at kernel-hardening@lists.openwall.com.

Static Analysis

Coccinelle

Coccinelle is a tool for matching and fixing source code for C, C++, and other languages.

Run by:

  • Fengguang Wu - Running against what trees?

Coverity

Coverity provides static analysis tools for C, C++, and other languages. Red Hat's Coverity license allows results to be shared with upstream projects.

Run by:

  • Paul Moore at Red Hat against what trees?

Smatch

Smatch is a static analysis tool for C.
