https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233707 --- Comment #11 from Tijl Coosemans <tijl@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Shawn Webb from comment #9) The paper is about copy-relocations of read-only variables. There are potential security problems with that because the copy is writeable. The c= opy has to be initialised at run-time with the value from the library. That doesn't apply to __stack_chk_guard because it's already writeable. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
