[PATCH 0/2] sysctl: allow CLONE_NEWUSER to be disabled

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There continues to be unexpected side-effects and security exposures
via CLONE_NEWUSER. For many end-users running distro kernels with
CONFIG_USER_NS enabled, there is no way to disable this feature when
desired. As such, this creates a sysctl to restrict CLONE_NEWUSER so
admins not running containers or Chrome can avoid the risks of this
feature.
