Code Review
This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, attempts to upgrade the Alpine base image to fix security vulnerabilities. However, it modifies a generated file directly, which is explicitly discouraged by comments in the file. The correct approach is to update the template generation scripts (versions.sh, apply-templates.sh) to ensure the change is applied consistently across all Dockerfiles and is not overwritten. The current change is incorrect as it only patches one of several vulnerable files and will be lost when the generation scripts are run again.

This change directly modifies a generated file, which is warned against in the file's header. This change will be overwritten the next time the apply-templates.sh script is run.
The correct way to update the base image is to modify the generation source. Specifically:
- Update the hardcoded Alpine versions in
versions.sh. - Execute
versions.shto updateversions.json. - Execute
apply-templates.shto regenerate all Dockerfiles for all Python versions.
This approach ensures that:
- The change is permanent and not overwritten.
- The vulnerability is fixed in all Dockerfiles using
alpine:3.17(for Python versions 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13-rc), not just this one. - The directory name will be updated to match the new Alpine version (e.g.,
.../alpine3.23/), avoiding confusion.
Because this PR takes an incorrect approach and only provides a partial fix, it should be closed and the fix should be re-implemented correctly.
Snyk has created this PR to fix 2 vulnerabilities in the dockerfile dependencies of this project.
Keeping your Docker base image up-to-date means you’ll benefit from security fixes in the latest version of your chosen image.
