SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires subprocess, json, sys, pathlib, datetime, argparse, os, dataclasses, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It helps you identify known security risks in container images so you can prevent vulnerable builds from reaching production.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability scanning for container images: Detects CVEs in OS packages and language-specific dependencies.
  • Misconfiguration, secrets, and license checks: Finds risky Dockerfile/K8s issues, hardcoded secrets, and license compliance gaps.
  • Actionable outputs and CI/CD gating: Supports JSON/SARIF and SBOM generation to integrate into pipelines and enforce severity thresholds.

Quick Start

Run the Trivy scan on your image tag to produce machine-readable results you can review and gate in CI.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan a Docker image for vulnerabilities and hardcoded secrets?

Scanning Docker images for vulnerabilities detects CVEs, hardcoded secrets, and misconfigurations by running Trivy against image references or tar archives to identify security risks before deployment.

Can I generate an SBOM and SARIF report during a Docker image vulnerability scan?

Docker image vulnerability scanning supports generating SBOM and structured outputs like JSON and SARIF, allowing you to review machine-readable results and integrate them directly into your CI/CD pipelines.

How do I set up a CI/CD security gate to block vulnerable Docker builds?

CI/CD security gating uses vulnerability scan results to enforce severity thresholds, preventing vulnerable Docker images from reaching production by failing the pipeline when high-severity CVEs are detected.

Does Trivy detect misconfigurations in Dockerfiles and Kubernetes files?

Trivy scanning detects misconfigurations in Dockerfiles and Kubernetes configurations, alongside OS package CVEs and language-specific dependency vulnerabilities, ensuring comprehensive container security validation.

What is the best way to automate registry security testing across a fleet of Docker images?

Scheduled registry security testing automates vulnerability scanning across single images or fleets, running Trivy to detect CVEs, secrets, and license issues during Docker build validation or incident response triage.

How does Docker image scanning handle license compliance checks?

Docker image scanning performs license compliance checks by analyzing image dependencies and OS packages, detecting license issues and gaps to ensure your container deployments meet regulatory requirements.
