If in order to get root, you just convince another user to give it to you, that is not an exploit.

??? Do you not understand how privilege elevation works? You normally need to provide your password to get root. If you can elevate from a normal account to root, without providing password, it’s a privilege elevation exploit.

What does any of this have to do with tricking the user?
