Terrier is a Image and
Containeranalysis tool that can be used to scan OCI images and
Containers to identify and verify the presence of specific files according to their hashes. A detailed writeup of Terrier can be found on the Heroku blog,
https://blog.heroku.com/terrier-open-source-identifying-analyzing-containers.
InstallationBinariesFor installation instructions from binaries please visit the
Releases Page.
Via Go$ go get github.com/heroku/terrier
Building from sourceVia go
$ go build
or
$ make all
Usage$ ./terrier -h
Usage of ./terrier:
-cfg string
Load config from provided yaml file (default "cfg.yml")
An OCI TAR of the image to be scanned is required, this is provided to Terrier via the "Image" value in the cfg.yml.
The following Docker command can be used to convert a Docker image to a TAR that can be scanned by Terrier.
# docker save imageid -o image.tar

What does Terrier do?Terrier is a CLI tool that allows you to:
- Scan an OCI image for the presence of one or more files that match one or more provided SHA256 hashes
- Scan a running Container for the presence of one or more files that match one or more provided SHA256 hashes
What is Terrier useful for?Scenario 1Terrier can be used to verify if a specific OCI image is making use of a specific binary, which useful in a supply chain verification scenario. For example, we may want to check that a specific Docker image is making use of a specific version or versions of cURL. In this case, Terrier is supplied with the SHA256 hashes of the binaries that are trusted.
An example YAML file for this scenario might look like this:
mode: image
# verbose: true
# veryverbose: true
image: golang1131.tar
files:
- name: '/usr/local/bin/analysis.sh'
hashes:
- hash: '9adc0bf7362bb66b98005aebec36691a62c80d54755e361788c776367d11b105'
- name: '/usr/bin/curl'
hashes:
- hash: '23afbfab4f35ac90d9841a6e05f0d1487b6e0c3a914ea8dab3676c6dde612495'
- name: '/usr/local/bin/staticcheck'
hashes:
- hash: '73f89162bacda8dd2354021dc56dc2f3dba136e873e372312843cd895dde24a2'
Scenario 2Terrier can be used to verify the presence of a particular file or files in a OCI image according to a set of provided hashes. This can be useful to check if an OCI image contains a malicious file or a file that is required to be identified.
An example YAML file for this scenario might look like this:
mode: image
# verbose: true
# veryverbose: true
image: alpinetest.tar
hashes:
- hash: '8b7c559b8cccca0d30d01bc4b5dc944766208a53d18a03aa8afe97252207521f'
- hash: '22e88c7d6da9b73fbb515ed6a8f6d133c680527a799e3069ca7ce346d90649b2'

- hash: '9a43cb726fef31f272333b236ff1fde4beab363af54d0bc99c304450065d9c96'
Scenario 3Terrier can be used to verify the components of Containers at runtime by analysing the contents of /var/lib/docker/overlay2/.../merged An example YAML file for this scenario might look like this:

# veryverbose: true
# image: latestgo13.tar
