SCM_RIGHTS file descriptor passing did not preserve FD_RESOLVE_BENEATH when a descriptor was transferred. A process could clear the restriction by sending the descriptor to itself over a Unix domain socket.
A process in a jail that has received a directory file descriptor from another jail can use these techniques to escape the jail's filesystem root restriction.
