[Scorecard:Docker-Deps]: Docker dependencies not pinned

[laurentsimon]

Hi team,

Hi team,

We (Google Open Source Security Team) have become aware of a security vulnerability in your repo configuration.
This bug was reported by running the scorecard tool.
I've enclosed information for your review to help you correct this issue.

@laurentsimon @laurentsimon2 FYI

::: Vulnerability description :::
scorecard reported that you are not pinning dockerfile dependencies by hash:

$ ./scorecard --repo=github.com/laurentsimon/scorecard-remediation-tests/ --checks=Frozen-Deps --show-details

!! frozen-deps/docker - src/drivers/npm/Dockerfile has non-pinned dependency 'node:12-bla2'
!! frozen-deps/docker - src/drivers/npm/Dockerfile has non-pinned dependency 'node:12-bla1'
!! frozen-deps/docker - src/drivers/npm/Dockerfile has non-pinned dependency 'node:12-alpine'

::: What is dependency pinning :::
Dependency pinning lets you control your dependencies by pinning them by hash. A hash is a cryptographic
construct that ensures an attacker cannot alter the content of the dependencies without being detected.

Pinning by version or any floating tag does not offer sufficient protection. There have been recent cases of attackers taking advantage of such vulnerabilities, most infamously the codecov hack.

Several projects are taking steps to address the same issue, e.g. envoy proxy.

::: Remediation guidance :::

You should use a hash to pin the dependencies. You can find an example here.

To find the hash corresponding hash to your dependency, run:

$ docker pull <dep>
...
Digest: sha256:acf7795dc91df17e10effee064bd229580a9c34213b4dba578d64768af5d8c51
...

Despite pinning, updates remain feasible and are encouraged. You should install github's dependabot by enabling it through this settings. Dependabot will automatically
create PRs that you can review, accept or reject when new versions of your dependencies become available.

It is recommended to accept dependabot PRs regularly to receive security patches.
