Use may_see_all_namespaces() helper that centralizes this policy\nuntil the nstree adapts."

"scenarios": [
{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable path is reached by a local `ioctl()` on an nsfs mount-namespace file descriptor, such as one obtained from `/proc/self/ns/mnt` or pidfd namespace ioctls. There is no network, adjacent, or physical attack path.\nAC:L - Triggering is deterministic: open a mount namespace fd and issue `NS_MNT_GET_NEXT` or `NS_MNT_GET_PREV`. There is no race or special memory-layout condition required.\nPR:L - The pre-fix check only required `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` in the target mount namespace's owning user namespace, which can be satisfied through user namespaces in plausible deployments. Under the higher-severity rule, this is Low rather than High.\nUI:N - No victim interaction is needed once the attacker has local execution and the relevant namespace capability. The attacker directly invokes the ioctl.\nS:C - The bug lets one namespace-confined service obtain file descriptors for other mount namespaces, bypassing the intended namespace visibility boundary. That can cross container or service isolation boundaries.\nC:H - The returned namespace fd and mount namespace id allow enumeration with `listmount()` and `statmount()`, exposing mount topology, paths, sources, options, and related metadata from another namespace. In plausible privileged-container scenarios, the fd can also enable `setns()` into the target mount namespace and expose sensitive filesystem contents.\nI:H - With the leaked mount namespace fd and the same namespace capabilities required by the vulnerable path, an attacker can plausibly `setns()` into another mount namespace and modify writable files or mount state there. This can compromise integrity across the namespace boundary.\nA:H - After obtaining and entering another mount namespace in a privileged scenario, the attacker can disrupt that namespace by altering or unmounting resources or damaging writable files. This can cause high availability impact to the affected service or container."
