A Bug is a Bug, but a Patch is a Policy: The Case for Bootable Containers

Quality: 7/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

The post argues that traditional patching based on CVSS scores is failing after the Linux kernel CNA started assigning CVEs without scores. It advocates bootable containers as a patching policy, treating the OS as an image for atomic updates and environmental triage, reducing update fatigue and enabling faster, policy-driven security the CI/CD way. It also references Chainguard as a velocity approach and points to a prior post on achieving a zero-CVE OS for VMs.
