image scanning

About this tag
Discussions tagged with image scanning cover both security scanning of container images and legacy hardware scanning. One thread addresses CVE-2024-40647, a vulnerability in the Sentry Python SDK that can leak environment variables into child processes, and clarifies that while Microsoft's advisory lists Azure Linux as a confirmed carrier, organizations should treat Azure Linux images as in-scope for patching. Another thread discusses troubleshooting an old Microtek flatbed scanner that fails with TWAIN errors, recommending VueScan as a third-party solution that works with legacy hardware, though it adds watermarks until purchased. The tag thus spans cloud security scanning and practical scanner driver issues.
