Maintaining secure container images and addressing new vulnerabilities quickly is a major challenge. To patch images, users face two options: wait for third-party authors to release updates, which can take weeks, or perform a full image rebuild, a time and resource-intensive process.
Project Copacetic (Copa) enhances the image patching process, reducing turnaround time and complexity. It integrates easily into existing build infrastructure, giving users greater control over their patching timeline and reducing costs.
Copa scans container images using tools like Trivy to generate a vulnerability report and parses the report for necessary OS-level package updates. It applies these updates to the target image using Buildkit (Docker’s default builder) to create a new patch layer on the original image. Copa can even patch distroless images by leveraging external tooling.
The talk will overview Copa, highlighting new features like scanner plugins and omitting reports to update all packages.
