Source code: https://github.com/jumanjihouse/docker-ssllabs-scan/
Docker image: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/jumanjiman/ssllabs-scan/
This git repo downloads golang source code from https://github.com/ssllabs/ssllabs-scan and builds a tiny docker image that scans secure websites with the Qualys SSL Labs service.
The build takes about 30 seconds and results in a 5 MiB Docker image.
The runtime image contains only:
- a static binary,
- CA certificates,
/etc/nsswitch.confso golang net resolver uses/etc/hosts, and/etc/passwdto provide an unprivileged user.
The container runs as an unprivileged user via the technique described in this Medium post.
Before you use this tool please review the terms and conditions, which can be found here: https://www.ssllabs.com/about/terms.html
The repo is set up to compile the software in a "builder" container, then copy the statically-compiled binary into a "runtime" container free of development tools or other binaries that could be abused. An unattended test harness runs the build script and runs acceptance tests. If all tests pass on master branch in the unattended test harness, it pushes the built images to the Docker hub.

For user convenience, each published image is tagged with
<upstream-version-number>-<date>T<time>-git-<git-short-hash> to correlate
with both the upstream software release and the git commit
of this repo. The "latest" tag always points to the most
recent build.
docker pull jumanjiman/ssllabs-scan:latest
Each built image has labels that generally follow http://label-schema.org/
We add a label, ci-build-url, that is not currently part of the schema.
This extra label provides a permanent link to the CI build for the image.
View the ci-build-url label on a built image:
docker inspect \
-f '{{ index .Config.Labels "io.github.jumanjiman.ci-build-url" }}' \
jumanjiman/ssllabs-scan
Query all the labels inside a built image:
docker inspect jumanjiman/ssllabs-scan | jq -M '.[].Config.Labels'
The following example uses --read-only and --cap-drop all as recommended by the
CIS Docker Security Benchmarks:
Example:
$ docker_opts="--read-only --cap-drop all --rm -it"
$ image="jumanjiman/ssllabs-scan:latest"
$ scan_opts="-grade -usecache"
$ url_to_scan="https://github.com/"
$ docker run ${docker_opts} ${image} ${scan_opts} ${url_to_scan}

You can also use the -hostfile option if you inject a local
file into the container:
# Create a hostfile in local filesystem.
$ ls -la /tmp/sites.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 48 Mar 12 15:39 /tmp/sites.txt
# Use docker `-v` option to inject a file into the container to use -hostfile option.
$ docker run -v /tmp:/tmp:ro ${docker_opts} ${image} -hostfile /tmp/sites.txt ${scan_opts}

You can add entries to /etc/hosts via docker run --add-host
or via the docker-compose extra_hosts option.
However, this scanner is only a client to the
Qualys SSL Labs service.
If the hosted service cannot resolve your hostname,
it cannot scan your server.
If the hosted service cannot reach your server,
it cannot perform the scan.
Consider to use https://github.com/jumanjihouse/docker-testssl if you need to scan internal sites that are not reachable from the public Internet.
