The security fix for CVE-2024-48991, 6ce6136 (“core: prevent race
condition on /proc/$PID/exec evaluation”) [0], introduced a regression
which was subsequently fixed 42af5d3 (“core: fix regression of false
positives for processes running in chroot or mountns (#317)”) [1].
Many thanks to Ivan Kurnosov and Salvatore Bonaccorso for their review.
