KubeStalk – Discovers Kubernetes And Related Infrastructure Based Attack Surface From A Black-Box Perspective
KubeStalk is a tool to discover Kubernetes and related infrastructure based attack surface from a black-box perspective. This tool is a community version of the tool used to probe for unsecured Kubernetes clusters around the internet during Project Resonance – Wave 9.
Usage
The GIF below demonstrates usage of the tool:
Installation
KubeStalk is written in Python and requires the requests library.
To install the tool, you can clone the repository to any directory:
git clone https://github.com/redhuntlabs/kubestalk
Once cloned, you need to install the requests library using python3 -m pip install requests or:
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
Everything is setup and you can use the tool directly.
Command-line Arguments
A list of command line arguments supported by the tool can be displayed using the -h flag.
To use the tool, you can pass one or more hosts to the script. All targets passed to the tool must be RFC 3986 complaint, i.e. must contain a scheme and hostname (and port if required).
A basic usage is as below:
$ python3 kubestalk.py https://███.██.██.███:10250

[!] Author: 0xInfection (RHL Research Team)
[!] Continuously Track Your Attack Surface using https://redhuntlabs.com/nvadr.
[+] Loaded 10 signatures to scan.
[*] Processing host: https://███.██.██.██:10250
[!] Found potential issue on https://███.██.██.██:10250: Kubernetes Pod List Exposure
[*] Writing results to output file.
[+] Done.
HTTP Tuning
HTTP requests can be fine-tuned using the -t (to mention HTTP timeouts), -ua (to specify custom user agents) and the --verify-ssl (to validate SSL certificates while making requests).
Concurrency
You can control the number of hosts to scan simultanously using the --concurrency flag. The default value is set to 5.
Output
The output is written to a CSV filea and can be controlled by the --output flag.
A sample of the CSV output rendered in markdown is as belows:
| host | path | issue | type | severity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
https://█.█.█.█:10250 | /pods | Kubernetes Pod List Exposure | core-component | vulnerability/misconfiguration |
https://█.█.█.█:443 | /api/v1/pods | Kubernetes Pod List Exposure | core-component | vulnerability/misconfiguration |
http://█.█.██.█:80 | / | etcd Viewer Dashboard Exposure | add-on | vulnerability/exposure |
http://██.██.█.█:80 | / | cAdvisor Metrics Web UI Dashboard Exposure | add-on | vulnerability/exposure |
