vzctl before 4.9.4 determines the virtual environment (VE) layout based on
the presence of root.hdd/DiskDescriptor.xml in the VE private directory,
which allows local simfs container (CT) root users to change the root
password for arbitrary ploop containers, as demonstrated by a symlink
attack on the ploop container root.hdd file and then access a control
panel.
