When fdescfs(4) was mounted in a jail with the "nodup" option, opening /dev/fd/N returned a descriptor that did not inherit FD_RESOLVE_BENEATH or the Capsicum capability rights of descriptor N.

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.
