# Elevated container privileges

A Kubernetes manifest that enables a privileged execution setting.

Area: Security

## What you need to supply

The manifest text. The check does not inspect a running cluster.

## If it reports a finding

Critical severity when the setting is present. The suggested next step is to remove it unless the workload needs it and is isolated on purpose.

## What this does not prove

A privileged setting that is not in the supplied manifest is outside this check.

## Setting that this check is written to notice

```
securityContext:
  privileged: true
```
