If there exists any dynamically linked SUID root binary in the system (e.g. ping) which a user can contain in a directory such that the regular directory structure puts files controlled by the user in directories that would become, for example, /lib or /usr/lib after chroot and then chroot inside it you have effectively given this user root privileges.
