Assessment Title
Rule Text
Amazon Linux 2023 must implement address space layout randomization (ASLR) to protect its memory from unauthorized code execution.
Description
Discussion Text
ASLR makes it more difficult for an attacker to predict the location of attack code they have introduced into a process' address space during an attempt at exploitation. Additionally, ASLR makes it more difficult for an attacker to know the location of existing code to repurpose it using return oriented programming (ROP) techniques.
