There's easily thousands of such bugs hidden in the kernel.

Reminder the kernel has over ten million LoCs, or megabytes of object code.

Perhaps we should start thinking about whether it is a good idea to run something this large in supervisor mode, with full privileges.

I wouldn't say it is sensible in a world where seL4 exists.
