How about SELinux, like on Android?

selinux on enforcement mode did not mitigate the exploit when I tested today on fedora coreos :(

To even get the su binary on Android you have to patch the OS. So this exploit can't work on Android. Because there is no su binary to target.

Update: Just tried it on Termux and as expected even creating an AF_ALG socket requires root access.

I assume that wouldn't help here but I could easily be wrong. (Assuming if you're asking if SELinux would block this exploit).
