Catching ransomware with eBPF: what execve/openat tracing taught me about false positives

TL;DR talus-process-monitor is an eBPF-based ransomware detector for Linux: it traces execve / openat from the kernel, streams events over per-CPU perf buffers, and flags behavioural patterns — mass file rewrites plus extension churn — in real time. The hard part is not the tracing; it's scoring patterns without crying wolf on every cargo build . Why behaviour, not signatures Signature detection on Linux ransomware is nearly useless — most samples are short-lived, often sc...

eBPF verifier limits are a design constraint: what CO-RE field offsets and bounded loops taught me

TL;DR Working on talus-process-monitor (Rust userspace + libbpf/C eBPF) I kept bumping into the same three walls: CO-RE field offsets shifting between kernel versions, the verifier refusing anything that looks like an unbounded loop, and map access patterns that get rejected at load time. All three are design constraints, not compiler annoyances. This post is what changed in my approach once I stopped fighting them. CO-RE relocation is a promise you have to verify Portable ...
