CHARON ferries file descriptors out of dying SUID/SGID processes
through the __ptrace_may_access mm==NULL window in do_exit(),
disclosed by Qualys 2026-05-15 (CVE-2026-46333).
Default behavior: dump /etc/shadow to stdout, banner + progress on
stderr. --quiet for pure-pipe output, --verbose for stats.
Built-in lures cover Debian/Ubuntu (chage SGID-shadow), RHEL family
(chage SUID-root), and ssh-keysign. Patched-kernel detection
distinguishes "primitive fires but lure didn't open target" from
"pidfd_getfd never succeeded → fix is in place".
Pre-built 46KB musl-static binary included as charon-static.
