The container previously applied CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE to the python
interpreter so the non-root pgadmin user could bind to ports 80/443.
Some platforms refuse to honor file capabilities:
- --cap-drop=ALL / OpenShift restricted-v2 SCC zero the bounding set,
so the kernel returns EPERM on exec of any capability-tagged binary.
This makes the image fail to start (issue #9657).
- --security-opt=no-new-privileges / allowPrivilegeEscalation: false
causes the kernel to silently strip file capabilities on exec, so
the binary runs but a subsequent bind() to <1024 still fails.
Split the interpreter so neither default behavior nor restricted-runtime
support has to give up the other:
- Dockerfile copies python3.X to /usr/local/bin/python3-cap and applies
setcap to the copy. /usr/local/bin/python3.X stays un-capped, so
/venv/bin/python3 (which symlinks to it) execs cleanly under
restricted SCCs. A parallel /venv/bin/python3-cap symlink keeps the
venv activation working when the capped interpreter is used.
- entrypoint.sh reads /proc/self/status at startup. If NoNewPrivs is
set, or CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE is missing from the bounding set,
gunicorn is invoked through the un-capped python and (when
PGADMIN_LISTEN_PORT is unset) the default port falls back to 8080
for plain HTTP or 8443 for TLS. A startup message records the
choice.
- Existing deployments with the default 80/443 mapping are unaffected:
on every unrestricted runtime the bounding set still contains
NET_BIND_SERVICE and gunicorn runs through the capped interpreter
exactly as before.
- PGADMIN_LISTEN_PORT, if set, is honored in both paths.
Docs gain a "Restricted Security Contexts" subsection covering the new
auto-detected fallback and the OpenShift / --cap-drop=ALL invocation.
Fixes #9657
pgAdmin Docker Container Builds
This directory contains the files required to create a docker container running pgAdmin.
Building
From the top level directory of the pgAdmin source tree, simply run:
docker build .
You can also run make docker, which will call docker build . but also tag the image like:
pgadmin4 pgadmin4:latest pgadmin4:4 pgadmin4:4.12
WARNING
The build should be run in a CLEAN source tree. Whilst some potentially dangerous files such as config_local.py or log files will be explicitly excluded from the final image, other files will not be.
Running
See the documentation at docs/en_US/container_deployment.rst for information on running the container.
