Container Scan

Deprecation Notice

This project is no longer actively maintained, and has had some deficiencies for sometime now. If anyone is interested to implement the action logic on their own or fork the repo then feel free to do so. Adding few consise points below on what this action does, which might help others to replicate it.

  1. Trivy and Dockle are used internally for running certain kinds of scans on images.
  2. It accepts some necessary inputs that are passed to Trivy/Dockle to run cli commands.
  3. It allows users to update an allowedlist of vulnerabilities for the repo. So that the action doesn't shows up the allowed vulnerabilites on every run.
  4. For leveraging this feature the scanitizer app needs to be installed/integrated for consumption of appropriate APIs to update the allowedlist for the repo.

This action may be archived in the future, but it will still be consumable in the workflows. Just that it won't be maintained in the future.

Overview

This action can be used to help you add some additional checks to help you secure your Docker Images in your CI. This would help you attain some confidence in your docker image before pushing them to your container registry or a deployment.

It internally uses Trivy and Dockle for running certain kinds of scans on these images.

  • Trivy helps you find the common vulnerabilities within your docker images.
  • Dockle is a container linter, which helps you identify if you haven't followed
    • Certain best practices while building the image
    • CIS Benchmarks to secure your docker image

Please checkout Trivy and Dockle licenses.

Action inputs

Action input Description Default Value
image-name (Required) The Docker image to be scanned ''
severity-threshold (Optional) Minimum severity threshold set to control flagging of the vulnerabilities found during the scan. The available levels are: (UNKNOWN, LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH, CRITICAL); if you set the severity-threshold to be `MEDIUM` every CVE found of a level higher than or equal to `MEDIUM` would be displayed HIGH
run-quality-checks (Optional) This is a boolean value. When set to `true` adds additional checks to ensure the image follows best practices and CIS standards. true
username (Optional) Username to authenticate to the Docker registry. This is only required when you're trying to pull an image from your private registry ''
password (Optional) Password to authenticate to the Docker registry. This is only required when you're trying to pull an image from your private registry ''
trivy-version (Optional) Version of Trivy to run, e.g. 0.22.0. The default is to use latest version. ''

Action output

The action generates an output file consisting of detailed description of all the detected vulnerabilities and best practice violations in JSON format. This file can be accessed by using the output variable scan-report-path.
Here is a sample scan report:

Ignoring vulnerabilities

In case you would like the action to ignore any vulnerabilities and best practice checks, create an allowedlist file at the path .github/containerscan/allowedlist.yaml in your repo. Here's an example allowedlist.yaml file.

general:
  vulnerabilities:
    - CVE-2003-1307
    - CVE-2007-0086
    - CVE-2019-3462
    - CVE-2011-3374
  bestPracticeViolations:
    - CIS-DI-0005
    - DKL-LI-0003
    - CIS-DI-0006
    - DKL-DI-0006

Install Scanitizer (currently in Beta) on your repository for more convenient management of allowedlist file.

Example YAML snippets

Container scan of an image available locally or publically available on dockerhub

- uses: azure/container-scan@v0
  with:
    image-name: my-image:my-tag

Container scan of an image available on a private registry

- uses: azure/container-scan@v0
  with:
    image-name: loginServerUrl/my-image:${{ github.sha }} # loginServerlUrl/ would be empty if it's hosted on dockerhub; ${{ github.sha }} could also be replaced with any desired image tag
    username: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_USERNAME }}
    password: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_PASSWORD }}

Container scan of an image available locally, publically, or privately using workflow environment variables

- uses: azure/container-scan@v0
  with:
    image-name: ${{ env.loginServerUrl }}/my-image:${{ github.sha }} # ${{ env.loginServerUrl }}/ would be empty if it's hosted on dockerhub; ${{ github.sha }} could also be replaced with any desired image tag
    username: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_USERNAME }}
    password: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_PASSWORD }}

End to end workflow using Azure

The following is an example of not just this action, but how this action could be used along with other actions to setup a CI.

Where your CI would:

  • Build a docker image
  • Scan the docker image for any security vulnerabilities
  • Publish it to your private container registry.
on: [push]

jobs:
  build-secure-and-push:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@master

    - run: docker build . -t contoso.azurecr.io/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}
      
    - uses: Azure/container-scan@v0
      with:
        image-name: contoso.azurecr.io/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}
    
    - uses: Azure/docker-login@v1
      with:
        login-server: contoso.azurecr.io
        username: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_USERNAME }}
        password: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_PASSWORD }}
    
    - run: docker push contoso.azurecr.io/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}

End to end workflow using any container repository and workflow environment variables

The following is an example of not just this action, but how this action could be used along with other actions to setup a CI.

Where your CI would:

  • Build a docker image
  • Scan the docker image for any security vulnerabilities
  • Publish it to your preferred container registry.

This example assumes you have defined an evironment variable in your workflow for CONTAINER_REGISTRY.

on: [push]

jobs:
  build-secure-and-push:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@master

    - run: docker build . -t ${{ env.CONTAINER_REGISTRY }}/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}
      
    - uses: Azure/container-scan@v0
      with:
        image-name: ${{ env.CONTAINER_REGISTRY }}/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}
    
    - uses: Azure/docker-login@v1
      with:
        login-server: ${{ env.CONTAINER_REGISTRY }}
        username: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_USERNAME }}
        password: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_PASSWORD }}
    
    - run: docker push ${{ env.CONTAINER_REGISTRY }}/k8sdemo:${{ github.sha }}
