Really? Try it. I am sure, that this works. You can create directory in chroot
and break chroot by this. fd is not closed, because linux doesn't close
descriptors by chroot syscall. this can be done every time if you have
CAP_SYS_CHROOT.

In case you have not followed my earlier email, I'll repost:

Perhaps that was formulated a bit sloppy. It of course means
"On chroot(2), implicitly close all FDs that point outside."
yes, but I can use fds from chroot ;-) ....
