This sets the following sysctl parameters across all projects:

  • vm.overcommit_memory=2
  • kernel.randomize_va_space=2
  • kernel.kptr_restrict=1
  • kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=1

Additionally, it adds a spread test to ensure that these are set in the resulting images.

This enables restricted ptrace access, meaning a process must have a
predefined relationship with the inferior it wants to call PTRACE_ATTACH on.
