| Syscall | Description |
|---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `acct` | Accounting syscall which could let containers disable their own resource limits or process accounting. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_PACCT`. |
| `add_key` | Prevent containers from using the kernel keyring, which is not namespaced. |
| `bpf` | Deny loading potentially persistent bpf programs into kernel, already gated by `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`. |
| `clock_adjtime` | Time/date is not namespaced. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_TIME`. |
| `clock_settime` | Time/date is not namespaced. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_TIME`. |
| `clone` | Deny cloning new namespaces. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` for CLONE_* flags, except `CLONE_NEWUSER`. |
| `create_module` | Deny manipulation and functions on kernel modules. Obsolete. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_MODULE`. |
| `delete_module` | Deny manipulation and functions on kernel modules. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_MODULE`. |

| `get_kernel_syms` | Deny retrieval of exported kernel and module symbols. Obsolete. |
| `get_mempolicy` | Syscall that modifies kernel memory and NUMA settings. Already gated by `CAP_SYS_NICE`. |

| `ioperm` | Prevent containers from modifying kernel I/O privilege levels. Already gated by `CAP_SYS_RAWIO`. |
| `iopl` | Prevent containers from modifying kernel I/O privilege levels. Already gated by `CAP_SYS_RAWIO`. |
| `kcmp` | Restrict process inspection capabilities, already blocked by dropping `CAP_SYS_PTRACE`. |
| `kexec_file_load` | Sister syscall of `kexec_load` that does the same thing, slightly different arguments. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_BOOT`. |
| `kexec_load` | Deny loading a new kernel for later execution. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_BOOT`. |
| `keyctl` | Prevent containers from using the kernel keyring, which is not namespaced. |
| `lookup_dcookie` | Tracing/profiling syscall, which could leak a lot of information on the host. Also gated by `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`. |

| `mount` | Deny mounting, already gated by `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`. |

| `nfsservctl` | Deny interaction with the kernel nfs daemon. Obsolete since Linux 3.1. |
| `open_by_handle_at` | Cause of an old container breakout. Also gated by `CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH`. |
| `perf_event_open` | Tracing/profiling syscall, which could leak a lot of information on the host. |
