android-cloexec-pipe2¶

This checks ensures that pipe2() is called with the O_CLOEXEC flag. The check also adds the O_CLOEXEC flag that marks the file descriptor to be closed in child processes. Without this flag a sensitive file descriptor can be leaked to a child process, potentially into a lower-privileged SELinux domain.

Examples:

pipe2(pipefd, O_NONBLOCK);

Suggested replacement:

pipe2(pipefd, O_NONBLOCK | O_CLOEXEC);
