# Container escape → host
## When it applies
You have code execution inside a container and want the underlying host (and from there, other
containers / the cluster / cloud creds).
## Why it works
Containers are isolation by configuration, not a hard boundary. Privileged mode, extra
capabilities, mounted host resources, or an exposed Docker socket give processes inside the
container direct control over the host kernel/daemon.
## Method
1. **Confirm & enumerate**: `/.dockerenv`, `/proc/1/cgroup`; run `amicontained`/`deepce` to list
capabilities, seccomp, and mounts.
