# Insecure Registry
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
While it's highly recommended to secure your registry using a TLS certificate issued by a known CA, you may alternatively decide to use self-signed certificates, or even use your registry over plain http.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You have to understand the downsides in doing so, and the extra burden in configuration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Deploying a plain HTTP registry
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> :warning: it's not possible to use an insecure registry with basic authentication
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This basically tells Docker to entirely disregard security for your registry.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. edit the file `/etc/default/docker` so that there is a line that reads: `DOCKER_OPTS="--insecure-registry myregistrydomain.com:5000"` (or add that to existing `DOCKER_OPTS`)
|
||
|
|
2. restart your Docker daemon: on ubuntu, this is usually `service docker stop && service docker start`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Pros:**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- easy to configure
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Cons:**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- very insecure
|
||
|
|
- you have to configure every docker daemon that wants to access your registry
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Using self-signed certificates
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> :warning: using this along with basic authentication requires to **also** trust the certificate into the OS cert store for some versions of docker
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Generate your own certificate:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
mkdir -p certs && openssl req \
|
||
|
|
-newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -sha256 -keyout certs/domain.key \
|
||
|
|
-x509 -days 365 -out certs/domain.crt
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Be sure to use the name `myregistrydomain.com` as a CN.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Stop and restart your registry.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then you have to instruct every docker daemon to trust that certificate. This is done by copying the `domain.crt` file to `/etc/docker/certs.d/myregistrydomain.com:5000/ca.crt` (don't forget to restart docker after doing so).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Stop and restart all your docker daemons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Pros:**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- more secure than the insecure registry solution
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Cons:**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- you have to configure every docker daemon that wants to access your registry
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Failing...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Failing to configure docker and trying to pull from a registry that is not using TLS will result in the following message:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
FATA[0000] Error response from daemon: v1 ping attempt failed with error:
|
||
|
|
Get https://myregistrydomain.com:5000/v1/_ping: tls: oversized record received with length 20527.
|
||
|
|
If this private registry supports only HTTP or HTTPS with an unknown CA certificate,please add
|
||
|
|
`--insecure-registry myregistrydomain.com:5000` to the daemon's arguments.
|
||
|
|
In the case of HTTPS, if you have access to the registry's CA certificate, no need for the flag;
|
||
|
|
simply place the CA certificate at /etc/docker/certs.d/myregistrydomain.com:5000/ca.crt
|
||
|
|
```
