Changes in version 5:

  • disable hardened_malloc for the Uber apps by default due to buggy anti-tampering code parsing /proc/self/smaps while allocating a lot of memory and infinite looping until it runs out of memory due to creating new VMAs (also enables other per-app protections by default due to how compatibility entries work)
