Sandbox escape by racing seccomp notifications? #27

@Changaco

Description

@Changaco

Sandlock is partly based on seccomp notifications and appears to be implying that they can be safely used for something the seccomp_unotify(2) man page warns against, i.e. to make a security decision to allow a syscall to proceed, which is unsafe due to TOCTOU race conditions. I think this limitation needs to be mentioned at least in the README sections where policy_fn is documented. Additionally, it might be a good idea for every function which returns NotifAction::Continue to explain why it's safe to do so.
