DIVDS: Docker Image Vulnerability Diagnostic System

Since the development of Docker in 2013, container utilization projects have emerged in various fields. Docker has the advantage of being able to quickly share application build environments among developers through container technology, but it does not provide security guarantees for known security vulnerabilities inside Docker images. Since the Docker images are shared without a means of security vulnerability diagnostic, polluted Docker images can be distributed so that the Docker-based application build environments can be easily collapsed. In this paper, we introduce a Docker Image Vulnerability Diagnostic System (DIVDS) for a reliable Docker environment. The proposed DIVDS diagnoses Docker images when uploading or downloading the Docker images from a Docker image repository.
