Docker Cloud Yaml - File Disclosure

What is the "Docker Cloud Yaml - File Disclosure?" module?

The "Docker Cloud Yaml - File Disclosure" module is designed to detect a specific vulnerability related to Docker Cloud YAML files. Docker Cloud is a cloud-based service that allows users to deploy, manage, and scale applications using Docker containers. This module focuses on identifying potential file disclosure issues within the Docker Cloud YAML files.

This module has a medium severity level, indicating that it can potentially expose sensitive information if misconfigured.

Impact

If the Docker Cloud YAML files are exposed, an attacker may gain access to sensitive information such as configuration details, credentials, or other sensitive data. This can lead to further exploitation or unauthorized access to the Docker environment.

How does the module work?

The "Docker Cloud Yaml - File Disclosure" module works by sending HTTP requests to the target system and analyzing the responses. It checks for specific patterns in the response body, headers, and status codes to determine if a file disclosure vulnerability exists.

For example, the module may send a GET request to the "/docker-cloud.yml" path and look for patterns such as "image:" and "ports:" in the response body. It also checks if the response headers do not contain "application/json" or "text/html" to avoid false positives. Additionally, it verifies that the response status code is 200.

If all the matching conditions are met, the module reports a vulnerability, indicating that the Docker Cloud YAML file may be exposed and potentially accessible to unauthorized users.

It's important to note that this module is just one test case within the Vidoc platform, which utilizes multiple modules to perform comprehensive scanning and detection of various misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and software fingerprints.
