Package: gtk2-engines-oxygen
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

The LDFLAGS hardening flags are missing because they are
overwritten in debian/rules. For more hardening information
please have a look at [1], [2] and [3].

The following patch fixes the issue.

To check if all flags were correctly enabled you can use
`hardening-check` from the hardening-includes package and check
the build log (for example with blhc [4]) (hardening-check
doesn't catch everything):

    $ hardening-check /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/liboxygen-gtk.so
    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/liboxygen-gtk.so:
     Position Independent Executable: no, regular shared library (ignored)
     Stack protected: yes
     Fortify Source functions: no, only unprotected 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.

Regards,
Simon
