Description Will Gordon 2018-04-04 15:12:51 UTC

Document URL: 
https://docs.openshift.com/online/dev_guide/application_lifecycle/new_app.html#specifying-an-image
https://docs.openshift.com/online/using_images/docker_images/index.html

I believe this information should be included on both of the above URLs.

Something to the affect of

"OpenShift Online runs containers using an arbitrarily assigned user ID. This provides additional security against processes escaping the container due to a container engine vulnerability and thereby achieving escalated permissions on the host node. Due to this restriction, images that run as root will not deploy as expected on OpenShift Online."
