Abstract

A computer-implemented method for managing containers. A processor set retrieves a container image from a container repository. The container image is retrieved by a host comprising a copy of the container image. The processor set updates the copy of the container image on the host based on filesystems in the container image retrieved from the container repository and metadata for the application packages associated with the container image retrieved from the container repository. The processor set creates a data structure comprising information for fixing security vulnerabilities and exposures for containers based on the metadata for the application packages, information associated with the application packages, and information associated with containers for the container image on the host.
