Package: hydra Version: 7.2-1 Severity: important Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
The hardening flags are missing because the build system ignores
CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS in a few places.
The following patch fixes the issue. If possible it should be
sent upstream.

To check if all flags were correctly enabled you can use
`hardening-check` from the hardening-includes package and check
the build log (hardening-check doesn't catch everything):
$ hardening-check /usr/bin/pw-inspector /usr/bin/hydra /usr/bin/xhydra
/usr/bin/pw-inspector:
Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
Stack protected: yes
Fortify Source functions: yes (some protected functions found)
Read-only relocations: yes
Immediate binding: no not found!
/usr/bin/hydra:
Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
Stack protected: yes
Fortify Source functions: yes (some protected functions found)
Read-only relocations: yes
Immediate binding: no not found!
/usr/bin/xhydra:
Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
Stack protected: yes
Fortify Source functions: yes (some protected functions found)
Read-only relocations: yes
Immediate binding: no not found!
(Position Independent Executable and Immediate binding is not
enabled by default.)
Use find -type f \( -executable -o -name \*.so\* \) -exec
hardening-check {} + on the build result to check all files.

Simon
