Actually there is a patch for that, it's called "ulimit". Pretty cool though, thanks for sharing!

You might as well type this at your console :
:() { :|: & } ; :
and watch your Linux freeze just the same.
Now is there a patch for this too?
All this is a bit of FUD don't you think? Still - if it ends up with an even more secure (tho still crashable) kernel so much the better. UML would prevent these scenarions but I haven't played with it yet.
