Package: syslog-ng
Version: 3.3.1.dfsg-1
Severity: important

The syslog-ng/3.3.1.dfsg-1 changelog states:
  * Build with Hardening enabled.

However, none of the default hardening flags for Wheezy are
activated, e.g.:

root@pisco:~# hardening-check /usr/sbin/syslog-ng /usr/bin/pdbtool 
/usr/lib/syslog-ng/3.3.1/libsyslogformat.so
/usr/sbin/syslog-ng:
 Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
 Stack protected: no, not found!
 Fortify Source functions: no, no protected functions found!
 Read-only relocations: no, not found!
 Immediate binding: no not found!
/usr/bin/pdbtool:
 Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
 Stack protected: no, not found!
 Fortify Source functions: no, no protected functions found!
 Read-only relocations: no, not found!
 Immediate binding: no not found!
/usr/lib/syslog-ng/3.3.1/libsyslogformat.so:
 Position Independent Executable: no, regular shared library (ignored)
 Stack protected: no, not found!
 Fortify Source functions: no, no protected functions found!
 Read-only relocations: no, not found!
 Immediate binding: no not found!

("Stack protected", "Fortify source" and "Read-only relocs"
should be activated)

You can test this with hardening-check from the hardening-includes
package.

Cheers,
