I did some test too. If you DMZ your router to your Asustor, is high chance you will get this issue. Which I did before.sandro_rocha wrote:I installed Docker-CE and didn't do anything else, didn't download or install any images, didn't start any containers and, a few hours later, there were four containers running. What explains that? Either the version available for the AS1002T is compromised or there is a security breach that allows external control.father.mande wrote:Hi,

When you used pre-created container from HUB ... no control is done ... and it's at your OWN risk
Last even a virus check is done ... crypto mining is not a virus ... it's a normal application ... so never identified as a virus ... only the access open (generally a reverse connect) can be (or not) identified.
If you are really interested by container ... use tools where you have all the hand and control (like LXC or direct namespace management) so you keep a very large % of control on what are inside.
or if for you like and want to use Docker (even it's own internal security holes) ... create yourself container ... it's describe as difficult (for selling services) when in reality it's easy if you have a minimum of Linux administration skills (some free student formations exist on the Web)
So best solution is TRASH the bad container and all dependencies (some containers works with others containers started hidden), and search for another HUB and verify that it's not the same with another name

NB I am a user so you can trash this advice, but I have used Docker, LXC and Namespace on multiples NAS (and write some tool-book for another NAS brand) ... and today I build my own isolated environment like myHD APKG (an isolated Ubuntu 18.04 env.) or use LXC
Now I hide it at the back ot router, limit the port open, then I did get issue with docker being injected with the mining "virus"
guess the asustor docker is open to attach, security is not good enough.
