Besides pointing pentester tools like metasploit at yourself, there are some nice scanners out there.

Clair. Vulnerability Static Analysis for Containers.

It scaled well compared to a naive graph abstraction implemented outside the database, but when performance wasn't great, it REALLY wasn't great. We ended up throwing it out in later versions to try and get more consistent performance.

I've since worked on SpiceDB[1] which takes the traditional design approach for graph databases and simply treating Postgres as triple-store and that scales far better. IME, if you need a graph, you probably want to use a database optimized for graph access patterns. Most general-purpose graph databases are just bags of optimizations for common traversals.

Open source: Trivy, Gryp and Clair are widely used open source tools for container scanning.

Testing the image with github.com/fullhunt/log4j-scan and https://github.com/quay/clair shows no vulnerabilities

Amazon Elastic Container Registry is a fully-managed Docker container registry. It makes it easy for developers to store and manage Docker images inside their AWS environment. ECR supports two types of image scanning. Enhanced image scanning requires an integration with Amazon Inspector. It will scan your repositories continuously. Basic image scanning will use the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) database (open-source Clair) to find vulnerabilities in your images. You can trigger scans on image push or manually.

CodiumAI PR-Agent’s influence extends deeply within open-source projects. An exemplary illustration is Kubespace, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) sandbox project. Since its adoption in August, Kubespace has been utilizing the PR-Agent service. They also recently had a public bug bounty collaboration with CodiumAI. This program added an extra layer of community-driven scrutiny, encouraging contributors to utilize simple commands like /describe for effective pull request messages. Here the contributor wanted to better describe the PR, so he used the /describe prompt.

Kubescape is the first Kubernetes security scanner that was accepted to the cloud native computing foundation. Kubescape 3.0 is a major release that extended the functionality of the original misconfiguration scanner to include vulnerabilities and usabillty improvements. If you are interested in an overview, feel free to check out the blog post. To dive straight into the code check out the repo. I'd love it hear what you think. What you like, what can be improved and of course, if you have any questions, hit me up.

Kubescape is a comprehensive Kubernetes security platform and CNCF sandbox project. It can scan clusters, Helm charts, and YAML manifests to detect misconfigurations. It supports various frameworks, including NSA-CISA, MITRE ATT&CK®, and the CIS Benchmark.
