We intend to allow some vulnerabilities temporarily, while keeping a close eye on them.
By allowing a vulnerability as soon as it has been analyzed, we the CI status can get back to green and we will be sure to notice new vulnerabilities thereafter.
If we don't allow vulnerabilities temporarily the Check will be "red" more often due to them and we might fail to notice new vulnerabilities.
We shall put those vulnerability ignore lists in
VULNERABILITIES WE ARE STILL MONITORINGand temporary path exclusions inTEMPORARY EXCLUSIONS.We also intend to run scheduled jobs that will run grype without those temporary allow lists, to keep an eye on them and remove them from the list when not needed.
I've not created the scheduled run yet, but made a simple program to remove temporary exclusions from the file.
We would use it like
./dev/remove-tmp-grype-exclusions.py .grype.yaml > .grype.clean.yaml && grype -c .grype.clean.yaml ...
