Docker Scout quickstart — Step 6: Improve compliance

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). The output of the quickview command shows that there's room for improvement. Some of the policies couldn't evaluate successfully (No data) because the image lacks provenance and SBOM attestations. The image also failed the check on a few of the evaluations. Policy evaluation does more than just check for vulnerabilities. Take the Default non-root user policy for example. This policy helps improve runtime security by ensuring that images aren't set to run as the root superuser by default. To address this policy violation, edit the Dockerfile by adding a USER instruction, specifying a non-root user Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```diff CMD ["node","/app/app.js"] EXPOSE 3000 + USER appuser ``` Additionally, to get a more complete policy evaluation result, your image should have SBOM and provenance attestations attached to it. Docker Scout uses the provenance attestations to determine how the image was built so that it can provide a better evaluation result. Before you can build an image with attestations, you must enable the containerd image store (or create a custom builder using the docker-container driver). The classic image store doesn't support manifest lists, which is how the provenance attestations are attached to an image. Open Settings in Docker Desktop. Under the General section, make sure that the Use containerd for pulling and storing images option is checked, then select Apply. Note that changing image stores temporarily hides images and containers of the inactive image store until you switch back. With the containerd image store enabled, rebuild the image with a new v3 tag. This time, add the --provenance=true and --sbom=true flags. Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```console $ docker build --provenance=true --sbom=true --push -t <ORG_NAME>/scout-demo:v3 . ``` Attribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
