 `-fstack-protector-strong` is recommended for all applications with conventional stack behavior. Applications with hand-written assembler optimization that make assumptions about the layout of the stack may be incompatible with stack-protector functionality.
 
+#### Caveats
+
+On September 12th, 2023 Meta's Read Team disclosed a vulnerability in GCC on AArch64 targets that causes GCC's stack smashing protection not to detect or defend against overflows of dynamically-sized local variables such as variable-length arrays or buffers allocated using `alloca()`[^Meta23]. At the time of disclosure, all version of GCC from 5.4.0 to trunk as of 2023-05-15 were affected. In response, Arm issued a patch that has been backported to GCC 7 - 13 and are incorporated to new releases of Arm GNU Toolchain[^Arm23]. Users of GCC-based toolchains for Aarch64 should ensure they use a version of the GNU toolchain incorporating these patches.
