simpleexec - trivial webshell in go

A simple webshell in go to help demonstrate the risks of heavy weight docker images, docker image sizes, and attack surface.

Compiling:

CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux go build -a -installsuffix cgo -o simpleExec .

Explanation of above: We are statically linking the necessary libraries (though this app doesn't use much). So the go binary will have everything it needs (including the kitchen sink that typically comes with the Linux OS)

CGO_ENABLED = 0 -installsuffix cgo means to not use go libraries that use "C" go libraries (because we are cross-compiling from a Mac to a linux OS).

More info on that: https://golang.org/cmd/cgo/ golang/go#9344

Building Containers

For GoLang:

docker build -t simple-golang -f Dockerfile.golang .
docker run -p 8004:8080 --name simple-golang -t simple-golang

For Fedora:

docker build -t simple-fedora -f Dockerfile.fedora .
docker run -p 8000:8080 --name simple-fedora -t simple-fedora

For Ubuntu:

docker build -t simple-ubuntu -f Dockerfile.ubuntu .
docker run -p 8001:8080 --name simple-ubuntu -t simple-ubuntu 

For alpine:

docker build -t simple-alpine -f Dockerfile.alpine .
docker run -p 8080:8080 --name alpineweb -t simpealpine

For scratch:

docker build -t simple-scratch -f Dockerfile.scratch .
docker run -p 8003:8080 --name simple-scratch -t simple-scratch

Container sizes:

$ docker ps -s
