whaler's Introduction

Whaler

Whaler is a Go program which is designed to reverse engineer docker images into the Dockerfile that created it. It currently performs the following actions

Generates a Dockerfile from an Image
Searches added filenames for potential secret files
Extracts files that were added by the Docker ADD/COPY Instructions
It also displays misc. information such as ports open, the user it runs as and environment variables.

How to run it

The easiest way is to run the tool in docker container:

docker pull pegleg/whaler
docker run -t --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro pegleg/whaler -sV=1.36 nginx:latest

docker build --rm -t pegleg/whaler .
alias whaler="docker run -t --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro pegleg/whaler"
whaler -sV=1.36 nginx:latest

This tool will pull target docker image automatically. Parameter -sV=1.36 is not always required.

How to build it

Git clone the project into your $GOPATH/src directory and perform the following command

go get -u github.com/P3GLEG/Whaler
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/P3GLEG/Whaler
go build .

How to run it

./Whaler
Usage of ./Whaler:
  -f string

  -filter
    	Filters filenames that create noise such as node_modules. Check ignore.go file for more details (default true)
  -sV string
    	Set the docker client ID to a specific version -sV=1.36
  -v	Print all details about the image
  -x	Save layers to current directory
