RWX mprotect

[lanodan]

I am using Gentoo Hardened (and so I have W^X protection with the PaX/grsecurity patches).

$ su -c './sifter.py --unk --dis --len --sync --tick -- -P1 -t'

I have the same issue on Alpine Linux.

I saw a similar problem on a linux system with selinux enabled. Assigning "injector" to a proper context and "auditing to allow" worked for me

ausearch -c 'injector' --raw | audit2allow -M my-injector
