Docker-bench is a Go application that checks whether Docker is deployed securely by running the checks documented in the CIS Docker Benchmark.
Tests are configured with YAML files, making this tool easy to update as test specifications evolve.
docker-bench currently supports tests as defined in the following CIS Docker Benchmarks:
| CIS Benchmark | docker-bench cfg directory | Docker versions |
|---|---|---|
| CIS Docker Benchmark v1.6.0 | cis-1.6.0 | 20.10 |
| CIS Docker Benchmark v1.2.0 | cis-1.2 | 18.09 and Docker Enterprise 2.1 |
| CIS Docker Community Edition Benchmark v1.1.0 | cis-1.1 | 17.06 |
| CIS Docker 1.13.0 Benchmark v1.0.0 | cis-1.0 | 1.13.0 |
docker-bench will determine the test set to run based on the Docker version running on the host machine.
The version to run tests for can also be specified manually with the --version <Docker version> or --benchmark <CIS benchmark version> commandline flag.
Install Go, then clone this repository and run as follows (assuming your $GOPATH is set):
go get github.com/aquasecurity/docker-bench
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/aquasecurity/docker-bench
go build -o docker-bench .
# See all supported options
./docker-bench --help
# Run checks
./docker-bench
# Run checks for specified Docker version
./docker-bench --version 18.09
# Run checks for specified cis Benchmark
./docker-bench --benchmark cis-1.2Tests are specified in definition files cfg/<version>/definitions.yaml,
where <version> is the version of CIS for which the test applies.
We welcome PRs and issue reports. Your PR is more likely to be accepted if it focuses on just one change. Please include a comment with the results before and after your change. Your PR is more likely to be accepted if it includes tests. (We have not historically been very strict about tests, but we would like to improve this!). You're welcome to submit a draft PR if you would like early feedback on an idea or an approach. Happy coding!
