A collection of container images with minimal CVE vulnerabilities

About

• A set of lightweight container images designed to minimize security vulnerabilities (CVEs) in production environments
• Rebuilt daily on top of Chainguard's apko and Wolfi packages to pick up the latest security patches
• Removes unnecessary packages to minimize the attack surface; most images contain only 0 to 5 or fewer CVEs
• Provides images for major runtimes and services such as Python, Node.js, Bun, Go, Nginx, HTTPD, Jenkins, Redis, PostgreSQL, and SQLite
  • Each image runs as a non-root user and includes no shell by default
