From 4d671d922d51907bc41f1f7f2dc737c928ae78fd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Felker Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2020 21:56:13 -0400 Subject: seccomp: kill process instead of thread for unknown actions Asynchronous termination of a thread outside of the userspace thread library's knowledge is an unsafe operation that leaves the process in an inconsistent, corrupt, and possibly unrecoverable state. In order to make new actions that may be added in the future safe on kernels not aware of them, change the default action from SECCOMP_RET_KILL_THREAD to SECCOMP_RET_KILL_PROCESS.
