Privileged Escape Abusing Existent release_agent (cve-2022-0492)
# spawn a new container to exploit via:
# docker run --rm -it --privileged ubuntu bash
# Finds + enables a cgroup release_agent
# Looks for something like: /sys/fs/cgroup/*/release_agent

# If "d" is empty, this won't work, you need to use the next PoC
# Enables notify_on_release in the cgroup

# If you have a "Read-only file system" error, you need to use the next PoC

# Mounts the RDMA cgroup controller and create a child cgroup
# This technique should work with the majority of cgroup controllers
# If you're following along and get "mount: /tmp/cgrp: special device cgroup does not exist"
# It's because your setup doesn't have the RDMA cgroup controller, try change rdma to memory to fix it

#===================================
# Executes the attack by spawning a process that immediately ends inside the "x" child cgroup
# By creating a /bin/sh process and writing its PID to the cgroup.procs file in "x" child cgroup directory
# The script on the host will execute after /bin/sh exits
