* Erratum 2: Scoped signal handling
7
* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
8
*
9
* This fix addresses an issue where signal scoping was overly restrictive,
10
* preventing sandboxed threads from signaling other threads within the same
11
* process if they belonged to different domains. Because threads are not
12
* security boundaries, user space might assume that any thread within the same
13
* process can send signals between themselves (see :manpage:`nptl(7)` and
14
* :manpage:`libpsx(3)`). Consistent with :manpage:`ptrace(2)` behavior, direct
15
* interaction between threads of the same process should always be allowed.
16
* This change ensures that any thread is allowed to send signals to any other
17
* thread within the same process, regardless of their domain.
