Re: how to determine if the noexec stack is defined by an application

But it's running a Web service which is a combination of C code and Tomcat/Java. I have no clue how to determine which portions specify a noexec stack and which don't.

like this:

$ eu-readelf -l /bin/true  | grep STACK
  GNU_STACK      0x000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x000000 0x000000 RW 0x4

Is Sun Java 1.5 a known exception - as an application that doesn't set a noexec stack and reverts to default?

# eu-readelf -l ./java | grep STACK | wc -l
0

But then, this bug report seems to indicate otherwise, if I'm reading it correctly:
