Pax-utils

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Hardened/PaX_Utilities
Security-focused ELF files checking tool

pax-utils is a small set of utilities for peforming Q/A (mostly security) checks on systems (most notably, `scanelf`). It is focused on the ELF format, but does include a Mach-O helper too for OS X systems.

While heavily integrated into Gentoo's build system, it can be used on any distro as it is a generic toolset.

Originally focused only on PaX, it has been expanded to be generally security focused. It still has a good number of PaX helpers for people interested in that.
