ISOSilo

A Vibe coded Go web server that lets you browse and download files from ISO 9660 images via your browser, without mounting them.

Features

• Library view - lists all .iso files in a directory as clickable cards
• In-ISO browsing - navigate directories inside any ISO just like a file manager
• File downloads - download individual files directly from within an ISO
• Clean UI - dark-themed, responsive interface with file-type icons
• Safe - path traversal protection; only .iso files in the served directory are accessible
• Zero mount required - reads ISO images directly using the ISO 9660 library

Installation

Prerequisites

• Go 1.22 or later

Build from source

git clone https://code.oscorp.dk/visionmercer/isosilo.git
cd isosilo
go mod tidy       # fetches github.com/kdomanski/iso9660
go build -o isosilo .

Usage

isosilo [flags]

Flags:
  -dir  string   Directory containing ISO files to serve (default: current directory)
  -addr string   Address to listen on (default: :8080)

Examples

# Serve ISOs from the current directory on port 8080
./isosilo

# Serve a specific directory on a custom port
./isosilo -dir /mnt/isos -addr :9000

# Serve on all interfaces (default) or localhost only
./isosilo -addr 127.0.0.1:8080

Then open http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

Security Notes

• The server only serves files with a .iso extension from the configured directory.
• ISO names are validated to prevent path traversal (.., /, \).
• Internal ISO paths are cleaned before use.
