PR #47361 restricts the sandbox token's default DACL to the runner's logon SID, removing Everyone and capability SID grants, and adds an OWNER RIGHTS entry stripping the owner's implicit WRITE_DAC, with an AccessCheck regression test confirming a second logon on the same account can't read process memory or create threads.
