[OC] Update: dockcheck - Checking updates for docker images without pulling - automatically update containers by choice.
But I'd suggest looking into if it's solved by other tools already, like regclient/regclient and their regsync features or something like containers/skopeo.
-
Made a script to check for image updates without pulling, then giving the option to update all (compose-)containers with newer images.
This is possible with the help of regctl.
-
if ( ( docker-compose pull ) == imageUpdated ) then...
I've been working on some stuff last couple of days to give me this function. Together with regctl I've got some drafts working.

AWS releases Finch: An open source client for container development
with more options like auth and certs. Infra might include backing disk and LB; if you need to scale, run several and keep them in sync with one of many open tools eg regclient.
Also plenty of cloud services now have registries like GHCR, ECR, etc. which are basically pay per Gb.

How to push multiarch builds to tag after testing?
I had a similar problem and ended up using regctl. You might have to tweak your docker config depending on the registries you use, by setting a file type ci/cd envvar with the name DOCKER_CONFIG

Or you could just run Watchtower beside it and it will automatically update your docker containers. https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower If you are OK with automated updates.

The Curse of Docker
So i primarily use containers on my local machine walled off from the internet, so it's not a big concern for me. Watchtower [1] is popular among home server users too which automatically updates containers to the latest image.
For production uses I think companies generally build their own containers. They would have a common base linux container and build the other containers based off that with a typical CI/CD pipeline. So if glibc is patched, it's probably patched in the base container and the others are then rebuilt. You don't have to patch each container individually, just the base. Production also minimizes the scope of containers with nothing installed except what's necessary so they have few dependencies.
