name: Containers run with allowPrivilegeEscalation enabled
author: princechaddha
severity: critical
description: Checks for containers running with the allowPrivilegeEscalation flag enabled, which can increase security risks by allowing privileges to be escalated
impact: |
Enabling allowPrivilegeEscalation in container deployments can result in elevated privileges, potentially allowing attackers to gain further access to host resources. This poses significant security risks.
remediation: Ensure that the allowPrivilegeEscalation flag is set to false in all container configurations to minimize security risks
