Better not rely on unprivileged containers to save you. The problem is:
Breaking out of a VM requires a hypervisor vulnerability, which are rare.
Breaking out of a shared-kernel container requires a kernel syscall vulnerability, which are common. The syscall attack surface is huge, and much of it is exploitable even by unprivileged processes.
