------------------------------------

Even if we clear the task's effective/permitted/inheritable capabilities, the
task can still gain those capabilities by exec'ing some crafted binary in the
image?
{quote}
Yes, that is correct. The task can gain privilege be executing files with
capabilities attached as long as it has those capabilities in its bounding set.
> Restrict capabilities to only the bounding set.

> As a security improvement, it would be useful to be able to set the bounding
> capability set without also granting those capabilities. This is what the
> {{--allowed_capabilities}} flag sounds like it does.
