Data on Linux attacks (was Re: [oss-security] Re: Fwd: x86 ROP mitigation)

We face the problem that I and my immediate colleagues (on the Red Hat tools team) do not have access to information about successful compromises, and what attackers actually do today, on GNU/Linux systems, both to achieve initial access and to maintain a presence afterwards. Under these conditions, anything we implement is, to some degree, arbitrary and a shot in the dark. We can still use our best judgment to set priorities, but we are very far from being guided by empirical evidence.
This is a place I think we could all stand to work together on. If anyone has any information on Linux attacks it would be very useful for planning future projects. There is a lot of evidence against some other platforms, but I've not seen anything great around Linux specifically. If anyone has ideas or comments, I'm all ears. -- JB
