Integrate Docker Scout with GitLab CI/CD — Steps

First, set up the rest of the workflow. There's a lot that's not specific to Docker Scout but needed to create the images to compare. Add the following to a .gitlab-ci.yml file at the root of your repository. Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```yaml docker-build: i

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). First, set up the rest of the workflow. There's a lot that's not specific to Docker Scout but needed to create the images to compare. Add the following to a .gitlab-ci.yml file at the root of your repository. Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```yaml docker-build: image: docker:latest stage: build services: - docker:dind before_script: - docker login -u "$CI_REGISTRY_USER" -p "$CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD" $CI_REGISTRY # Install curl and the Docker Scout CLI - | apk add --update curl curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/scout-cli/main/install.sh | sh -s -- apk del curl rm -rf /var/cache/apk/* # Login to Docker Hub required for Docker Scout CLI - echo "$DOCKER_HUB_PAT" | docker login -u "$DOCKER_HUB_USER" --password-stdin ``` This sets up the workflow to build Docker images with Docker-in-Docker mode, running Docker inside a container. It then downloads curl and the Docker Scout CLI plugin, logs into the Docker registry using environment variables defined in your repository's settings. Add the following to the YAML file Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```yaml script: - | if [[ "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH" == "$CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH" ]]; then tag="" echo "Running on default branch '$CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH': tag = 'latest'" else tag=":$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG" echo "Running on branch '$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH': tag = $tag" fi - docker build --pull -t "$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE${tag}" . - | if [[ "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH" == "$CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH" ]]; then # Get a CVE report for the built image and fail the pipeline when critical or high CVEs are detected docker scout cves "$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE${tag}" --exit-code --only-severity critical,high else # Compare image from branch with latest image from the default branch and fail if new critical or high CVEs are detected docker scout compare "$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE${tag}" --to "$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest" --exit-code --only-severity critical,high --ignore-unchanged fi - d ``` … Attribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
