Scanner for vulnerabilities in container images, file systems, and Git repositories, as well as for configuration issues

Abstract

Trivy (tri pronounced like trigger, vy pronounced like envy) is a simple and comprehensive scanner for vulnerabilities in container images, file systems, and Git repositories, as well as for configuration issues. Trivy detects vulnerabilities of OS packages (Alpine, RHEL, CentOS, etc.) and language-specific packages (Bundler, Composer, npm, yarn, etc.). In addition, Trivy scans Infrastructure as Code (IaC) files such as Terraform, Dockerfile and Kubernetes, to detect potential configuration issues that expose your deployments to the risk of attack. Trivy is easy to use. Just install the binary and you're ready to scan.

Demo: Misconfiguration Detection (IaC Files)

Quick Start

Scan Image for Vulnerabilities

Simply specify an image name (and a tag).

$ trivy image [YOUR_IMAGE_NAME]

For example:

$ trivy image python:3.4-alpine

Scan Filesystem for Vulnerabilities and Misconfigurations

Simply specify a directory to scan.

$ trivy fs --security-checks vuln,config [YOUR_PROJECT_DIR]

For example:

$ trivy fs --security-checks vuln,config myproject/

Scan Directory for Misconfigurations

Simply specify a directory containing IaC files such as Terraform and Dockerfile.

$ trivy config [YOUR_IAC_DIR]

For example:

$ ls build/
Dockerfile
$ trivy config ./build
