Docker base images #174

Description

@LPETERS006

Hi.

have you ever tried to use "adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:alpine", "adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:centos", "adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:latest" (ubuntu) as base image (FROM ..)? These images are based on the vendor's base images (e.g. alpine:3.14) and are likely to be more secure.

To explain: Yesterday I started scanning my images for vulnerabilities with SNYK (Docker Scan...). According to SNYK, by switching from alpine:3.12 to alpine:3.14 as a base, I was able to close all vulnerabilities.

Then I noticed that you are using "azul/zulu-openjdk-alpine:jdk11" as the base image.
And unfortunately the makers of this image only use a tar file as a basis. That can include pretty much anything. Then I tried to scan it for vulnerabilities but that fails....

The image may not be secure, but it doesn't have to be. Just wanted to point that out.

Greetings Lasse
