From e6b899f08066e744f89df16ceb782e06868bd148 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Brauner Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 14:50:09 +0100 Subject: nsfs: tighten permission checks for ns iteration ioctls Even privileged services should not necessarily be able to see other privileged service's namespaces so they can't leak information to each other. Use may_see_all_namespaces() helper that centralizes this policy until the nstree adapts.
