Preliminary research
SharedRoot: Escaping the Claude Cowork sandbox
AI-collected research leads through 6 October 2026, including bounded month-by-month reviews of selected social and community sources from January through September. Unranked, incomplete, not community-vetted, and subject to change.
A Claude Cowork session combines unprivileged user namespaces, netlink module autoloading and a public kernel page-cache write with an unhardened root broker. Guest root can then reach the Mac host filesystem because the entire host root is mounted read-write inside the VM.
