    The "Clair" security scanner
    CoreOS has announced
    the release of a container-security tool called Clair. "Clair scans
    each container layer and provides a notification of vulnerabilities that
    may be a threat, based on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database
    (CVE) and similar databases from Red Hat, Ubuntu, and Debian. Since layers
    can be shared between many containers, introspection is vital to build an
    inventory of packages and match that against known CVEs.    "
