At startup, the attach-serve helper now tries to mark itself so that other programs running under your user account cannot read its memory. That memory holds a sign-in token, the credential that keeps you signed in. Before, only the code review helper did this.\n\nIf the protection cannot be applied, the helper shows a warning that it could not make itself non-dumpable.\n\n**Why**\n\nIt makes it harder for another program on the same machine to steal your sign-in credential from this helper.\n\n- Area: Permissions\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
