Everything64.exe 1.5.0.1283a doesn't appear to have ASLR enabled ?

Post by Deipotent »

Great work so far on the 1.5 version!

On Win 10 21H1 x64,

When I check the Everything64.exe 1.5.0.1283a (portable ZIP download) in Process Explorer it shows ASLR as "Enabled (permanent)Disabled", while in Process Hacker it shows "Mitigation policies" as just "DEP (permanent)".

If I check another process, like dopus.exe, with Process Explorer it shows ASLR as "High-Entropy, Bottom-Up", while in Process Hacker it shows "Mitigation policies" as "ASLR (high entropy) DEP (permanent)".

Are you building with ASLR enabled (ie. /DYNAMICBASE /HIGHENTROPYVA) ?

EDIT: Added OS.

On my end, Win7 (might matter ?), 1282 x86...

-------

PE:
DEP: Enabled (Permanent)
ALSR: Disabled

-------

PH:
Mitigation: DEP (Permanent)

Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is permanently enabled for this process.
ATL thunk emulation is disabled.

Thanks for your feedback Deipotent,

This was done for debug purposes.

Future builds will use /DYNAMICBASE /HIGHENTROPYVA
