/* == virtfshell ==
 *
 * Some distributions make virtfs-proxy-helper from QEMU either SUID or
 * give it CAP_CHOWN fs capabilities. This is a terrible idea. While
 * virtfs-proxy-helper makes some sort of flimsy check to make sure
 * its socket path doesn't already exist, it is vulnerable to TOCTOU.
 *
 * This should spawn a root shell eventually on vulnerable systems.
