Container-Image-Schwachstellenscanner

Clair is a container vulnerability scanner that performs static analysis of container images to identify known security vulnerabilities. It functions as an analyzer for OCI and Docker images, indexing their contents to detect security risks and outdated packages without requiring the containers to be running. The tool identifies vulnerabilities by matching indexed container components against security databases to find common vulnerabilities and exposures. This process involves analyzing filesystem layers to track the provenance and versioning of packages across the image hierarchy. The proj

Trivy is a comprehensive security scanner designed to identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations across container images, filesystems, and infrastructure as code files. It functions as a software composition analysis tool and an infrastructure security scanner, providing automated checks for CI/CD pipelines and cloud environments to ensure the integrity of the software supply chain. The tool distinguishes itself through a modular, plugin-based architecture that allows for the independent inspection of diverse targets. It utilizes a declarative policy engine to evaluate configurations agai

Grype is a command-line security scanner designed to identify known vulnerabilities within container images, filesystems, and software manifests. It functions as a software composition analysis tool that detects security flaws in application components and open-source libraries to support supply chain security. The tool distinguishes itself by reconstructing the final state of container images through layered filesystem inspection and normalizing diverse package formats into a unified dependency graph. It maintains a local cache of security advisories synchronized from multiple upstream sourc

Clair is a container image vulnerability scanner and security analyzer. It performs static analysis of container images by matching package contents against vulnerability databases to identify security risks across different package formats and architectures. The project functions as both an image indexer and a vulnerability database manager. It processes container layers into intermediate representations to enable fast security lookups and synchronizes security metadata from multiple external sources to maintain a local registry. Capability areas include continuous security monitoring, whic

Snyk is an application security testing platform designed to identify and remediate vulnerabilities across source code, open-source dependencies, container images, and infrastructure-as-code configurations. It functions as a comprehensive security workflow automation tool, utilizing a static analysis engine and dependency graph mapping to detect security flaws and license compliance issues throughout the software development lifecycle. The platform distinguishes itself through agentic workflow orchestration and an automated remediation pipeline that generates and submits pull requests to patc

Kubescape is a security platform for Kubernetes that provides tools for scanning clusters, configurations, and container images against industry compliance and security benchmarks. It functions as a suite of security utilities, including a compliance auditor, a misconfiguration scanner, and a container vulnerability scanner. The project differentiates itself through automated remediation and active enforcement. It can automatically patch operating system vulnerabilities in images and fix security errors within manifest files. It also utilizes an admission controller to block the deployment of
