Here's a DIN912 cap screw:

Tom has a point in that most linear ("V") brake anchors do
not have cylindrical heads and actually do look more like an
'internal wrenching bolt':

p.s.
A metric DIN #912 cap screw is usually under a dollar. Not
so with Actual Bicycle Parts!

BTW, that internal wrenching bolt profile is used for Hollowtech pinch bolts. https://images.amain.com/images/larg....jpg?width=475 It leaves little material near the top, and if the wrench is not seated, it is easy to wallow out the fitting. A standard M6 hex cap screw gives you more material to support the wrench, but its a tight fit in the arm.
