Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nsfs: tighten permission checks for handle opening

Even privileged services should not necessarily be able to see other
privileged service's namespaces so they can't leak information to each
other. Use may_see_all_namespaces() helper that centralizes this policy
until the nstree adapts.
