  Angie - drop-in replacement for Nginx

  

I don't get it...does not he knows about angie [1]? It was created by NGINX core devs after F5 acquisition if I'm not mistaken and it's a drop-in replacement for NGINX.

  Fast and extensible multi-platform HTTP/1-2-3 web server with automatic HTTPS

  

I haven't read the content of the patches to understand the impact of the bugs, but from my own experience [0] I can suggest a few reasons:

- CVEs are gold to researchers and organizations like citations are to academics. In this case, the CVEs were filed based on "policy" but it's unclear if they are just adding noise to the DB.

- The severity of the bug is not as severe as greater powers-that-be would like to think (again, they see it as doing due diligence; developers who know the ins and outs might see it as an overreaction).

- Bug is in an experimental feature.

I'm not saying one way is right or not in this case, just pointing out my experience has generally been that CVEs are kind of broken in general...

  A tiny but valid `init` for containers

yes busybox httpd or civetweb is even smaller, both around 300kb.

for tini you mean https://github.com/krallin/tini? how large is your final docker image, why not just alpine in that case which is musl+busybox

Yep that tini. The docker image is about 1.90mb. It's a repack of https://homer-demo.netlify.app/ I pre-gzipped a few of the compressible file extensions too so they can be served compressed.

In this case, I didn't need alpine. I generally aim to get the image as minimal as possible without too much hassle. For example many community docker imagee use something like Ubuntu as a base and apt install java when they could use a distroless java
