CDK is an open-sourced container penetration toolkit, designed for offering stable exploitation in different slimmed containers without any OS dependency. It comes with useful net-tools and many powerful PoCs/EXPs helps you to escape container and takeover K8s cluster easily.
Currently still under development, submit issues or mail i@cdxy.me if you need any help.

Drop executable files into target container and start testing.
Usage
Usage:
cdk evaluate [--full]
cdk run (--list | <exploit> [<args>...])
cdk auto-escape <cmd>
cdk <tool> [<args>...]
Evaluate:
cdk evaluate Gather information to find weakness inside container.
cdk evaluate --full Enable file scan during information gathering.
Exploit:
cdk run --list List all available exploits.
cdk run <exploit> [<args>...] Run single exploit, docs in https://github.com/cdk-team/CDK/wiki
Auto Escape:
cdk auto-escape <cmd> Escape container in different ways then let target execute <cmd>.
Tool:
vi <file> Edit files in container like "vi" command.
ps Show process information like "ps -ef" command.
nc [options] Create TCP tunnel.
ifconfig Show network information.
kcurl <path> (get|post) <uri> <data> Make request to K8s api-server.
ucurl (get|post) <socket> <uri> <data> Make request to docker unix socket.
probe <ip> <port> <parallel> <timeout-ms> TCP port scan, example: cdk probe 10.0.1.0-255 80,8080-9443 50 1000
Options:
-h --help Show this help msg.
-v --version Show version.
Features
CDK have three modules:
- Evaluate: gather information inside container to find potential weakness.
- Exploit: for container escaping, persistance and lateral movement
- Tool: network-tools and APIs for TCP/HTTP requests, tunnels and K8s cluster management.
Evaluate Module
Usage
cdk evaluate [--full]
This command will run the scripts below without local file scanning, using --full
to enable all.
