As I learned earlier this year, protection of the system once the
kernel has been broken open is outside the scope of SELinux.

It's an interesting topic, though. And it will certainly grow in
importance as the blackhats are concentrating more on kernel exploits
and less on userspace exploits. Which is a trend we've been seing for
at least a year now.
