If $USER is compromised, shared memory could be modified. But then they can already modify $GIT_DIR/index. A more realistic risk is some bugs in index-helper produce corrupt shared memory. --strict is added to avoid that Strictly speaking there's still a very small gap where corrupt shared memory could still be read by git: after we write the trailing SHA-1 in the shared memory (thus signaling "this shm is ready") and before verify_shm() detects an error.
