Use of privileged Linux containers must be limited to system containers.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Using the --privileged flag gives all Linux Kernel Capabilities to the container, thus overwriting the --cap-add and --cap-drop flags. The --privileged flag gives all capabilities to the container, and it also lifts all the limitations enforced by the device cgroup controller. Any container that requires this privilege must be documented and approved.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
