+synopsis: Enforce syscall filtering and no-new-privileges on Linux
+cls: 1063
+category: Breaking Changes
+credits: alois31
+---
+
+In order to improve consistency of the build environment, system call filtering and no-new-privileges are now unconditionally enabled on Linux.
+The `filter-syscalls` and `allow-new-privileges` options which could be used to disable these features under some circumstances have been removed.
+
+In order to support building on architectures without libseccomp support, the option to disable syscall filtering at build time remains.
+However, other uses of this option are heavily discouraged, since it would reduce the security of the sandbox substantially.
