pamela - a PAM wrapper for secure execution ------------------------------------------- pamela is a library implementing the PAM API. Traditional PAM implementations such as Linux-PAM load PAM modules dynamically into the application's address space. This is unsafe and exposes a lot of attack surface. Instead, pamela encapsulates the inner workings of PAM in a binary which is itself linked against Linux-PAM and performs all the module loading in its own address space; pamela provides an implementation of the PAM user API that communicates with that binary, keeping the application's address space free of external modules. See http://skarnet.org/software/pamela/ for details. * Installation ------------ See the INSTALL file. * Contact information ------------------- Laurent Bercot
