To get RCE, I had to generate a token from the webapp to be able to use it in the exploit.

This article is very useful to understand the setup of container but was based on older verions of portainer:

Use Portainer for Privilege EscalationCyber Security Architect | Red/Blue Teaming | Exploit/Malware Analysis

Following the post:

Get the image id

Try to map host file system to the container with the following settings

device: /
o: bind
type: none

Create a container with the settings below

Finally, Access the console and get root access :)
