A local attacker could escalate to root privileges. Public exploit code is available; the risk is high on multi-user servers or hosts running containers.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade linux-image-genericneedrestartVelociraptor allows some sensitive artifacts to be gated by additional permissions. For example, the Linux.Sys.BashShell artifact allows arbitrary command execution on endpoints, and so it requires the EXECVE permission to schedule.
