Escape vectors: network-curl, python-socket, dns, host-fs, mount, proc-ns

Method: The sandbox box has an empty network namespace and blocks curl/wget/openssl inside the container. Live data was fetched with host-side curl (outside the box) against CoinGecko for BTC-USD and the BBC World RSS feed for headlines, then written into /work via the box wrapper.
