2012-11-09don't use memset() in privacy/security relevant code partsPhilip Kaufmann
As memset() can be optimized out by a compiler it should not be used in privacy/security relevant code parts. OpenSSL provides the safe OPENSSL_cleanse() function in crypto.h, which perfectly does the job of clean and overwrite data. For details see: http://www.viva64.com/en/b/0178/ - change memset() to OPENSSL_cleanse() where appropriate - change a hard-coded number from netbase.cpp into a sizeof()
2012-08-23Handle locked pages more robustly (Fixes issue #1462)Wladimir J. van der Laan
Memory locks do not stack, that is, pages which have been locked several times by calls to mlock() will be unlocked by a single call to munlock(). This can result in keying material ending up in swap when those functions are used naively. In this commit a class "LockedPageManager" is added that simulates stacking memory locks by keeping a counter per page.

I originally created a pull to replace the "COPYING" in crypter.cpp and crypter.h, but it turned out that COPYING was actually the correct file.
