A new project release of TLAC 2.0 (Tuncor Local Anti-Cheat) is now available. TLAC is an open anti-cheat system designed for Linux operating in user space. The system utilizes ptrace and procfs to scan process memory for typical cheat patterns to detect interference in game processes. TLAC includes features such as mask search, integrity control using SHA256 hashes, hardware blocking using HWID, and storing settings in JSON format. The code is written in Rust using the Tokio asynchronous framework for IPC and is distributed under the MIT license.
TLAC 2.0 has introduced a notable addition in the form of a kernel module. This module is specifically designed to check the integrity of the system, with its current functionality focused on verifying the presence of modules loaded into the kernel by utilizing the masks “rootkit” and “suspicious” in /proc/modules. More information on the project release and the kernel module can be found here.
