Decision modules PAX and DAZ removed
Wednesday, 22/Apr/2020
PAX and DAZ modules have been removed in latest kernel 5.4 and rsbac-admin git repos. RSBAC version is now 1.5.5 to reflect that change.
Deprecate decision modules PAX and DAZ
Tuesday, 31/Mar/2020
PAX and DAZ support are now marked as deprecated. PaX has not been freely available for years and the Dazuko interface seems obsolete, too. For on-access malware scanning, I recommend the UDF module.
If noone protests within the next few weeks, I am going to remove the related code.

Latest RSBAC patches
Wednesday, 11/April/2018
Even though this page has not been updated for a long time, RSBAC is still under constant development and maintenance. Latest code has always been available through git.
From now on, you can also find the latest RSBAC patches for the maintained kernel versions in the latestdiff download dir.
RSBAC 1.5.0
Tuesday, 13/September/2016
RSBAC 1.5.0 has been released for kernel 4.4.20. Please drop us a note if you need support for other kernel versions.
The most important changes since 1.4.9 are the port to longterm kernel 4.4 and the new feature “Prevent memory write and execute (RSBAC mprotect)” to prevent against process memory segments being both writable and executable. This new hardening feature made me choose a new middle version number.
The change lists are here: Kernel changes: http://www.rsbac.org/dl.php?file=code/1.5.0/changes-1.5.0.txt
Admin tools changes: http://www.rsbac.org/dl.php?file=code/1.5.0/admin-changes-1.5.0.txt
Please consider giving some feedback on the RSBAC mailing list.
