Hi, that is not true. The "dns" promise only allows sockets with the SOCK_DNS option, the kernel restricts access to only DNS type operations and port numbers (enough for libc to do DNS). The kernel tries to separate pledges as tightly as possible, with many checks:
SOCK_DNS
For domains AF_INET or AF_INET6, only allow connect(2), sendto(2), or sendmsg(2) to the DNS port (typically 53).
