grype VS kubescape

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

Using Grype:

In the lab to follow, we'll see how vulnerability scanning can be conveniently achieved with Grype and how various systematic techniques can be applied to start securing our microservices at the container image level.

Scanning your container images for vulnerabilities is a good approach. But this scanning is not one time job, it should be done regularly (weekly, monthly, etc.) You need to follow vulnerability reports and fix all of the vulnerabilities as soon as possible. I recommend some open-source tools that could be useful: Trivy, Docker-Bench, Grype.

Grype is another popular open source tool from Anchore. Working with SBOM files, Grype scans container images and filesystems for vulnerabilities. Grype supports different output formats for vulnerabilities and custom templates for output.

Grype will allow you to scan a container to see if you have any vulnerable packages.

I have a Docker image that I built with python:3.10-slim. I wanted to start scanning my images so I'm using grype to do it locally with the plan to introduce it to a GitHub Actions workflow. After I ran the scanner, there was one critical issue found: libdb5.3 CVE-2019-8457. I looked it up and it seems to be an issue with sqlite.

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.
