docker-static-nmap

Alpine Linux Docker container to statically compile Nmap. You can

Compile from your own directory

Uses the current directory and drops into interactive bash shell. Your current directory should contain your nmap source code.

docker run -it --platform linux/amd64 --entrypoint /bin/bash -v "$(pwd)":/nmap 0xbad53c/static-compile-nmap:latest

Next, configure and compile:

cd /nmap && ./configure \
    --without-zenmap \
    --without-nping \
    --without-ncat \
    --disable-shared \
    CFLAGS="-static" \
    CXXFLAGS="-static" \
    LDFLAGS="-static" && \
    make && \
    make install

Build latest nmap statically from GitHub

docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64 -t 0xbad53c/static-nmap:latest .

If you prefer to use the prebuilt image:

docker run -it --platform linux/amd64 --entrypoint /bin/bash 0xbad53c/static-nmap:latest

You can copy out the nmap binary via:

docker cp <containerid>:/nmap/nmap .

Alt: Barebones Docker container to build your own

Useful if e.g. you have your own CI/CD to build nmap statically

docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64 -t 0xbad53c/static-compile-nmap:latest -f compile.Dockerfile .

In your CI/CD, ensure to include the correct configure command to build static Nmap

# Configure and build a static Nmap binary
RUN ./configure \
    --without-zenmap \
    --without-nping \
    --without-ncat \
    --disable-shared \
    CFLAGS="-static" \
    CXXFLAGS="-static" \
    LDFLAGS="-static" && \
    make && \
    make install
