Access to a privileged container allows for breakout to the underlying host

[lance5890]

1 as the kube-apiserver has set the 'privileged: true'

cluster-kube-apiserver-operator/bindata/assets/kube-apiserver/pod.yaml

Lines 148 to 149 in 31380bd

	securityContext:
	privileged: true

2 but even without the 'privileged: true', the kube-apiserver can also write audit to /var/log/kube-apiserver

3 when using standard container runtimes (for example ContainerD or CRI-O) access to a privileged container allows for easy breakout to the underlying host, which in turn allows for access to all other workloads on that host and credentials for the node agent (Kubelet)

maybe we should remove the "privileged: true"
