I'm arguing in the context of memfd, and there's no security leak if people get access to the underlying inode (at least I'm not aware of any). As I said, context information is attached to the inode, not file context, so I'm fine if people want to open multiple file contexts via /proc. If someone wants to forbid open(), I want to hear _why_. I assume the memfd object has uid==uid-of-creator and mode==(777 & ~umask) (which usually results in X00, so no access for non-owners). I cannot see how /proc is a security issue here.
