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

             Summary: Prevent ptracing of container management processes.
                 Key: MESOS-9349
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9349
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: containerization, security
            Reporter: James Peach


The container launcher and the built-in executors are (at least partially) 
accessible to containerized user tasks. Since these processes may contain 
secrets or hold privileged resources, we can increase the difficulty of 
attacking them by preventing user tasks attaching to them with ptrace(2). This 
amounts to calling `prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 0)`.
