Stop Execution Upon Kernel Oops
or Warning

kernel.panic_on_oops = 1
kernel.panic_on_warn = 1

By default, Linux tries to be as debug friendly as possible. Therefore the kernel does not stop execution upon an internal fault or assertion failure. On systems with security constraints, we advise to disable this feature so that the kernel immediately panics. That makes it more difficult for an attacker as he can attempt his attack less often.
