libpathrs: securing path operations for system tools
Aleksa Sarai

Container runtimes and other privileged system management tools have historically struggled with safely operating on a path within a directory tree controlled by a malicious user. libpathrs is a library which makes it easy to do said path operations, as well as providing some other safe path-related utilities such as providing safe wrappers to operate on procfs files in a safe way.
