+.. title:: clang-tidy - android-cloexec-pipe
+
+android-cloexec-pipe
+====================
+
+This check detects usage of ``pipe()``. Using ``pipe()`` is not recommended, ``pipe2()`` is the
+suggested replacement. The check also adds the O_CLOEXEC flag that marks the file descriptor to
+be closed in child processes. Without this flag a sensitive file descriptor can be leaked to a
+child process, potentially into a lower-privileged SELinux domain.
+
+Examples:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  pipe(pipefd);
+
+Suggested replacement:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+  pipe2(pipefd, O_CLOEXEC);
