Deepdive Containers - Kernel Sources and nsenter

[@daved5872]

docker exec --user root

[@LiveOverflow]

haha... lol...... well........

[@renato.bohler]

We accidentally learned something lol

[@barefeg]

Can also run with privileged flag

[@danielmitre]

Diving in kernel code is scary and fascinating as CTF's, both requires same curiosity though

[@Hari-pk4ou]

Is it possible to convert ISO image into docker image ?

[@AJMansfield1]

@@Hari-pk4ou No, that's not possible in the general case, and probably something that couldn't be done automatically even for the cases where it would be technically possible. Although I guess you could probably run a QEMU vm inside a docker, so there's that.

Wait, I know this dude!

"The worst thing that can happen is that you accidentally learn something." For a person like me, who loves learning new stuff about technology, learning something by accident is one of the best things that can happen ;)

For my work I use a lot of windows containers, so far I haven’t found a great explanation of this on the windows side of things, but I do feel inspired to write Pocker, a powershell implementation of docker on windows, which I’m pretty sure will easily surpass bocker in horribleness ;)

[@stefantobler]

Do it!

[@EER0000]

@@stefantobler I got started on it and but got stuck on the first dll call with some weird errors, this combined with the complete lack of documentation led me to put the project on hold :(

[@danihp9238]

This kind of videos about kernel/syscall are amazing man, keep going

[@mohammedhafiz8039]

"this loose and wide approach of learning gets you deeper than just being boxed into a topic by some kind of kind of standard tutorial" well said 👍

[@terinjokes]

I believe the `chroot` is needed to select the binary you want to call from within the container's mount namespace. Since you don't include the chroot, you're calling the host's /bin/bash instead. This can be useful if you're debugging a container with a minimal (or non-existent) tools. You can use nsenter with tools from the host.

[@sundhaug92]

chroot is needed to setup a root filesystem in the mount-namespace. When you later join the mount-namespace the root filesystem is already setup

[@svampebob007]

Dude... I've been watching your videos for a while now, I'm not a programmer or anything and just recently started using linux, docker was something I didn't understand at all. but just recently got around to the idea of running Arch linux on my phone via Termux. I was facing a problem trying to run one piece of software on Arch, it didn't make sense, then I dived deep into the logs and what not... Being a fresh rookie to linux I though there's something I'm doing wrong here, then out of the blue I got a "flashback" seeing how you talked about privilages and docker... it all made sense why I was facing those issues! suddenly the way Arch was being "ran" made total sense, I still haven't solved my issue (and I don't think I will ever solve it from the research I've done now), but it stopped me from diving deep down the termite hole, and maybe get me diving down the rabbit hole. TLDR; Thank you for teaching me something I didn't think I learned watching your videos!

[@sakshamsethi4123]

Kudos brother 👊. You are doing so much for the community, stuff like deep dive in to kernel source is something you simply can't find anywhere else! Thanks for this little series, hope to see another on on aufs.

[@greyman1104]

Very well explained series about Docker. Good job.

[@simonthepirate3891]

Thank you for the three docker vids, i learned a lot!

[@joonasfi]

Holy balls, I never thought "getpid" implementation would be so complicated

[@stevetec1816]

is there a way to get a high-res version of the drawn docker logo used here? i think that it, in combination with some other images from this channel, could make for some great wallpapers

[@while-loop]

Inb4 you find a container vuln and end my whole docker/kuberbetes deployment architecture

[@user-cz9ss4yq4x]

that’s why you do RBAC and drop privileges inside containers

[@olpizl]

Cooles Video, ich verstehe zwar zu 60% nur Bahnhof, aber ich denke ich habe dennoch ein paar Sachen dazu gelernt.😊

[@nopr9d847]

Hi ! I see 42 of your video today haha ... Yeah get so much time :p I learn a lot with you, your website is cool too (you forgot your KZbin's intro video with comment on your html :p) (if you want some's help for your layout I'm a frond-end) Keep going ! I will test some of your's advice

[@KevinPfeifer]

Thanks for that awesome explanation of how docker works :D definitely learned something. The only major problem I always run into is the fact, that docker runs soooo much slower on MacOS than Linux and even Windows (I mainly develop in PHP) I'm talking like seconds longer for the same request. But I guess this has something to do with how docker is implemented in MacOS. Or do you have any experience with that?

[@KevinPfeifer]

I just found out, that MacOS is partially based on the FreeBSD Kernel and therefore doesn't have such a syscall like unshare... therefore docker will probably have to do something different to accomplish the same thing

[@RoiEXLab]

Repeating my question from the last video: Docker for Linux seems clear now, but how does docker work on other OSes then? VM or something else?

[@LiveOverflow]

yep, VMs ;)

[@ThoolooExpress]

​@@LiveOverflow There are native Windows containers too. It's too bad the NT kernel is closed source, it would be fun to compare the implementations.

[@wilfridtaylor]

Cloud computing is just someone else's computer. Containers are just someone else's kernel :p.

[@davidyanceyjr]

Started with docker, then found systemd-nspawn - which I like tinkering with more than docker.

[@user-cz9ss4yq4x]

BSD jails are like Linux containers but a lot less messy :)

[@sonny23ization]

can you please combine this docker videos in one playlist? (docker system hacking)

[@kevinjonathan8742]

Omg, very good thanla

[@neonmatrix1703]

Bro hi I'm new to your channel

[@ytsuge]

NIce, do Hyper-V next :) You might need a soldering iron.

[@Asrashas]

I'd rather see a video about Xen

[@barefeg]

Can you investigate how docker uses cgroups too?

[@timg4802]

Nice video :)

[@almightyhydra]

Wow, 8 character tabs and no enforced brackets after if statements.

[@maximkovalkov1334]

Yep, that's old-school C for you The *clearly superior* style

[@Hari-pk4ou]

Can you please make vedios about converting suselinux iso image into docker image

[@mina86]

Bash sounds like a reasonable language to implement Docker. Definitely better than Go. Docker still sounds to me like over-engineered wrapper around tar and bunch of names pace and cgroup commands.

[@d1rtyharry378]

but nsenter is just docker with root?

[@TimLF]

Why is bocker "terrible"?

[@neonmatrix1703]

I would like if you could make a video about reverse engeneering because I'm interested to know how to hack online games mmorpg

You are exaplining containers and nsenter not from a Linux perspective but from a shell binaries perspective. Awful video.
