GitHub Apps are now supported in Docker Hub integrations

Improved

We've enhanced our Docker Hub integrations by adding GitHub App support. This update allows you to attach a Dockerfile to your Snyk Container images directly through your GitHub Cloud and GitHub Server App integrations.

Attaching a Dockerfile gives you more precise fix advice, including smarter base image recommendations for both major and minor upgrades, and a wider range of alternative upgrade paths. This new capability means Snyk gains deeper context about your image during scans, leading to more actionable and tailored recommendations.

No explicit action is required to enable this feature. To start, simply navigate to your Snyk Container image Project settings. There, you can use the Configure Dockerfile option to select the appropriate Dockerfile via your GitHub App integration.
