Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method for running applications on a multi-tenant container platform may include (1) receiving, at a host administrator service on a container host computing device and via a host administrator service socket handle, a request for a privileged operation from an application running in a non-privileged container, (2) performing, based on a user identifier of the application, a security check of a user associated with the application, (3) comparing, when the security check results in approval, a process identifier of the requested privileged operation against a whitelist of permitted operations to determine the requested privileged operation is permissible, and (4) initiating running, when the requested privileged operation is permissible, the requested privileged operation. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
