I have long been of the opinion that it is this sort of thing which best
advocates the use of SELinux. We need more examples like this. I posted
this to reddit a couple years ago:
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1xdokz/selinux_saved_our_asses_xp...
And just a few months ago we had another SELinux save. I would say that
in the years I've been using SELinux I've probably seen 5 cases where
SELinux successfully contained an attack. I wish I would have written
them all up at the time. Those 5 saves definitely made it worth it.
Check out the comments on that reddit post, Daniel. :)
