The docker scan
command has been removed.
To continue learning about the vulnerabilities of your images, and many other features, use the new docker scout
command.
Run docker scout --help
, or learn more at https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/scout/
Docker Scan is a Command Line Interface to run vulnerability detection on your Dockerfiles and Docker images.
You need to be logged into the Docker Hub in order to use the docker scan
command.
Docker Scan works with third party providers to detect vulnerabilities,
the plugin will ask for your consent before sending any data to the provider.
$ docker scan hello-world
? Docker Scan relies upon access to Snyk a third party provider, do you consent to proceed using Snyk? (y/N)
Docker Scan allows you to scan existing Docker images by name or ID.
- You can then use
docker scan DOCKER_IMAGE
:
$ docker scan hello-world
Testing hello-world...
Organization: docker-desktop-test
Package manager: linux
Project name: docker-image|hello-world
Docker image: hello-world
Licenses: enabled
✓ Tested 0 dependencies for known issues, no vulnerable paths found.
Note that we do not currently have vulnerability data for your image.
If you want more details, you can provide the Dockerfile used to create the image
- the syntax is
docker scan -f PATH_TO_DOCKERFILE DOCKER_IMAGE
If we apply the option to the current repository, we have:
$ docker scan -f Dockerfile docker-scan:e2e

According to our scan, you are currently using the most secure version of the selected base image
When using the scan
command with the -f
flag, you can exclude the base image (i.e.: that specified in the Dockerfile with the FROM
directive) vulnerabilities from your report by adding the --exclude-base
tag.
$ docker scan -f Dockerfile --exclude-base docker-scan:e2e

"description": "## Overview\nAn issue was discovered in disable_priv_mode in shell.c in GNU Bash through 5.0 patch 11. By default, if Bash is run with its effective UID not equal to its real UID, it will drop privileges by setting its effective UID to its real UID. However, it does so incorrectly. On Linux and other systems that support \"saved UID\" functionality, the saved UID is not dropped. An attacker with command execution in the shell can use \"enable -f\" for runtime loading of a new builtin, which can be a shared object that calls setuid() and therefore regains privileges. However, binaries running with an effective UID of 0 are unaffected.\n\n## References\n- [CONFIRM](https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20200430-0003/)\n- [Debian Security Tracker](https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2019-18276)\n- [GitHub Commit](https://github.com/bminor/bash/commit/951bdaad7a18cc0dc1036bba86b18b90874d39ff)\n- [MISC](http://packetstormsecurity.com/files/155498/Bash-5.0-Patch-11-Privilege-Escalation.html)\n- [MISC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wGtxJ8opa8)\n- [Ubuntu CVE Tracker](http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/CVE-2019-18276)\n",

If you want to only display some level of vulnerabilities, the --severity
flag allows you to choose between 3 levels of
vulnerabilities low
,medium
or high
. By using this tag you will only report vulnerabilities of the provided level

If you have an existing Snyk account, you can directly use your auth token
$ docker scan --login --token PROVIDER_AUTH_TOKEN
You need to get a Snyk API token and then use it like this
$ docker scan --login --token c68dc480-27bd-45ee-9f5c-XXXXXXXXXXXX
Your account has been authenticated. Snyk is now ready to be used.
If you use the --login
command without any token, you will be redirected to the Snyk website to login.
Docker Desktop comes with Docker scan already installed. Just try to use the plugin, open a terminal and write the following command:
$ docker scan
Usage: docker scan [OPTIONS] IMAGE
A tool to scan your images
Options:
--accept-license Accept using a third party scanning provider
--dependency-tree Show dependency tree with scan results
--exclude-base Exclude base image from vulnerability scanning (requires --file)
-f, --file string Dockerfile associated with image, provides more detailed results
--json Output results in JSON format
--login Authenticate to the scan provider using an optional token (with --token), or web base token if empty
--reject-license Reject using a third party scanning provider
--token string Authentication token to login to the third party scanning provider
--version Display version of the scan plugin
If you get the following error message, you're not using the latest version of Docker Desktop
docker: 'scan' is not a docker command.
Docker packaging on Linux comes with Docker scan plugin. You can simply install Docker following the standard linux install
Just try to use the plugin, open a terminal and type the following command:
$ docker scan
Usage: docker scan [OPTIONS] IMAGE
If you get the following error message, you're not using the latest version of Docker on Linux
docker: 'scan' is not a docker command.
Alternatively, you can manually install the scan docker plugin on top of your existing docker setup :
Download the binary from the latest release and copy it in the cli-plugins
directory
mkdir -p ~/.docker/cli-plugins && \
curl https://github.com/docker/scan-cli-plugin/releases/latest/download/docker-scan_linux_amd64 -L -s -S -o ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-scan &&\
chmod +x ~/.docker/cli-plugins/docker-scan
You'll find all the commands to build, run and test Docker Scan inside the BUILDING.md
file.
