The current stable kernel for F36 (that would be shipped in Beta) is kernel-5.17.0-0.rc5.102.fc36 , which doesn't include the fixes for the CVE-2022-0847 ("dirty pipe") local file manpulation / privilege escalation vulnerability.
Practically speaking we'd expect folks to update immediately after installing so the impact of shipping the Beta without this fixed on the installer images is limited, but it looks bad to ship with known vulnerabilities, so I'm proposing this bug as an FE to get a fixed kernel into Beta. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-e392889f49 includes kernel-5.17.0-0.rc7.116.fc36 , which has the fixes.
