chiark-really
really - a tool for gaining privilege (simple, realistic sudo)
really is a program that allows certain users to become whatever user
they like on request. It is a bit like sudo in that respect.
However, really is simpler than sudo, and doesn't give the system
administrator any false security promises. So really is less of a
general security risk to the system.
chiark-rwbuffer
readbuffer/writebuffer: prevents tape drive seesawing, etc.
readbuffer and writebuffer: programs for reading input from devices,
and writing output to, which don't like constant stopping and
starting, such as tape drives and audio playback devices.
fsverity
Userspace utilities for fs-verity
fs-verity is a Linux kernel feature that does transparent on-demand
integrity/authenticity verification of the contents of read-only files,
using a hidden Merkle tree (hash tree) associated with the file. The
mechanism is similar to dm-verity, but implemented at the file level
rather than at the block device level.
