> Enable to either propagate the mount options from the underlying VFS
> mount to prevent execution, or to propagate the file execute permission.
> This may allow a script interpreter to check execution permissions
> before reading commands from a file.
>
> The main goal is to be able to protect the kernel by restricting
> arbitrary syscalls that an attacker could perform with a crafted binary
> or certain script languages. It also improves multilevel isolation
> by reducing the ability of an attacker to use side channels with
> specific code. These restrictions can natively be enforced for ELF
> binaries (with the noexec mount option) but require this kernel
> extension to properly handle scripts (e.g., Python, Perl).
>
> Add a new sysctl kernel.yama.open_mayexec_enforce to control this
> behavior. A following patch adds documentation.

I forgot to mention that these checks do not handle fifos. This is
relevant in a threat model targeting persistent attacks (and with
additional protections/restrictions).
