About:
This project provides a kernel module which provides 3rd-party
applications with an interface for file access control. It was
originally developed for on-access virus scanning. Other uses include a
file-access monitor/logger or external security implementations. It
operates by intercepting file-access calls and passing the file
information to a 3rd-party application. The 3rd-party application then
has the opportunity to tell the kernel module to allow or deny the
file-access. The 3rd-party application also receives information about
the file, such as type of access, process ID, user ID, etc.
Release focus: Minor bugfixes
Changes:
Some "in use" problems with spontaneous context-switches when unloading
under FreeBSD were fixed. Macros for hooking/unhooking system calls were
added. Filename length restrictions were removed. Code for generating
protocol13 was abstracted and moved into XP layer. Support for filenames
with non-printable characters was added. The ability to compile the
interface library without 1.x compatibility was added. An "off by one"
bug which occurred when calculating include/exclude path lengths was
fixed. Support for Linux 2.6 kernels was added (not yet complete, but
very functional).
