OnionScan in a Docker container Based on https://github.com/s-rah/onionscan.
The purpose of this tool is to make you a better onion service provider. You owe it to yourself and your users to ensure that attackers cannot easily exploit and deanonymize.
Run the container like so:
docker run -d --cap-drop=all --name onionscan mpatton/onionscan
This will startup the Tor connection and allow you to do the following:
docker exec -it onionscan onionscan <options> <onion address>
See https://github.com/s-rah/onionscan for further information.
Note: Run the following to make sure Tor has fully started, prior to running your scan:
docker logs -f onionscan
For a bash function to automate the process of pulling and starting the onionscan daemon container add the following to your .bashrc:
function onionscan(){
onionscanrunning=$(docker inspect --format "{{.State.Running}}" onionscan 2>/dev/null)
if [ "$onionscanrunning" == "true" ]
then
docker exec -it onionscan onionscan $@
else
docker rm $(docker ps -a | grep "onionscan" | cut -d " " -f1)
docker run -d --cap-drop=all --name onionscan mpatton/onionscan
docker exec -it onionscan onionscan $@
fi
}Using the above function will allow you to run onionscan as if it were installed natively. Now you can simply use the following syntax in a terminal:
onionscan <options> <onion address>
