azure-containerapps-execute-as-via-sessionpool
Executing code in a custom-container session that binds a reachable MI => execute as that MI (read the identity endpoint from the session).
match
A conjunctive graph pattern. Variables (?x) bind node ids; every clause must hold.
where
node_type(?pool) ==
ContainerService
?mi.privilege_level > ?principal.privilege_level # strict escalation only (equal-privilege lateral excluded)
?mi reachable from the session container (identitySettings.lifecycle in [All, Main] or unset)

Narrative
{principal.name} can execute code in a session of pool {pool.name} and mint the token of its identity {mi.name} from the local identity endpoint, executing as {mi.name}.

false_positive_note: Requires the session-execute DATA ACTION AND a custom-container pool that binds
an MI reachable from session code. Escalation only if the MI out-privileges the caller. If session
pools cannot bind a reachable MI, this rule never fires (the ExecutesAs fact is absent).
