The problem

The flaw is not in your code. It is in the base image.

You pinned a base image months ago and it has been rebuilt into every release since. Your own code gets reviewed. The packages you inherited from that image do not, and one of them now has a fix you have never heard of.

How it works

Four steps to done.

  1. 01ECR Connect

    Connect your Amazon ECR registry in minutes. No agents, no pipeline changes - just IAM role access.

  2. 02Image Scanning

    Scan all images across all repositories for known CVEs, outdated packages, and misconfigured layers.

  3. 03CVE Detection

    Cross-reference findings against the National Vulnerability Database for accurate CVE identification and CVSS scoring.

  4. 04Report & Prioritize

    Get severity-sorted findings with base image recommendations and specific package-level fix guidance.

Machine speed, human judgement

It scans the image, not the running container.

Images are read from your registry and compared against the vulnerability feed, so a scan costs your cluster nothing. Each finding names the package, the version that fixes it, and whether the flaw is known to be exploited - so you rebuild what matters first.

  • It reads images in your registry. It does not attach to running containers.
  • A flaw in a base image needs a rebuild. There is no patch we can apply to an image for you.
  • It matches package versions against a public feed, so a vendor backport can look unpatched until the feed catches up.
