What I meant is to fix all legitimate applications (doing a change in mesa might solve the majority of it) and then eventually require sealed memfds instead of supporting the mechanism that is, as you mentioned, prone to abuse.
However, it seems the ship has already sailed and no one wants to change the protocol to accommodate this safer way of passing buffers around. Which is sad.
