Install open source static analysis tool for docker containers, Clair. For Blue Teams, I think this check is also worthwhile.

While inside the container, you can find out what level of privilege you have, like root. “ry to identify the process for running a container…to access the container remotely.” You will need the IMAGE ID for the next step. You want to know how many and what type of docker images are running on the machine. If you have access, you will get an output of the client and servier versions. (Blue team take note here.) You will need to have docker running on your machine to control the container.Įxample: docker -H 192.168.0.156:2375 version If the 2375 port is open, then there’s a chance you can remotely access that container. Jump ahead: You have the IP address for the Docker service you want to test. You will want to refine your filters for your search. Your search will be: port:2375 product:'docker'

with ports 2375, 2376, and 2377 publicly exposed to the web. Using Shodan, “ a search engine that lets users search for various types of servers…connected to the internet”, you can look for applications, servers, routers, etc. Hacking Docker containers, perhaps easier than commandeering a container ship? Photo by Elias E on Unsplash The guide specifies that “the daemon and CLI communicate with each other through Unix Socket that represents a loopback address.” The ports in use for remote access are 2375, 2376, and 2377. Docker’s comprehensive end to end platform includes UIs, CLIs, APIs and security that are engineered to work together across the entire application delivery lifecycle.”ĭocker’s architecture is made of the Docker Daemon, Docker CLI, and Docker API.

“Docker takes away repetitive, mundane configuration tasks and is used throughout the development lifecycle for fast, easy and portable application development - desktop and cloud. Docker is a “Platform as a Service” “ Paas” tool for building cloud native, or containerized, applications. If you are new to Docker, then check out this guide from Ignite Technologies, posted here on Linkedin. I walk you through this guide to hack Docker. They aren’t always secure, and can be improperly configured.

Docker is a container platform for hosting all kinds of things.
