In privileged mode, Kubernetes pods can mount the host filesystem and may be subject to container escape. This chain attempts to mount the host filesystem to test whether the host is vulnerable to a container escape. It is critical that pods are not able to mount the host filesystem, as attackers may create persistence by altering mounted files, elevating privileges, and escaping the container.
