So this is slightly off-topic for the series; but kind of relevant, but... Is there a way to inhibit module loading after a given point? I ask, because there's a fairly well known security escalation that takes advantage of NSS loading of PAM modules; typically you have your nice sandboxed application, you write out your nasty .so into the sandbox and then somehow get your application to trigger the PAM module load. Now, what stops the same attack here?
