Our research shows that precondition validation, error handling, and redesign are the most used of the security advisory. methods in solving vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. This The paper is organized as follows: we examine previous contribution is accompanied with statistics on the occurrence work that was done regarding Linux and C security in of the different types of vulnerabilities and their solutions that Section II, followed by a description of the methodology we observed during our case study, combined with example used in order to obtain the solutions to the vulnerabilities in source code patches. We also combine our findings with existing programming guidelines to create the first security-oriented Section III. Afterwards, in Section IV, we show our results, coding guidelines for the Linux kernel.
