What's includedWhy it matters
SLSA Provenance

Build Level 3

Tamper-evident proof of how and from what sources this image was built. Build Level 3 is the highest the SLSA build track defines.

SBOM

CycloneDX SBOM + SPDX SBOM

A software bill of materials in both CycloneDX and SPDX formats so it drops straight into your existing tooling. Audit exactly what you're shipping.

VEX

A Vulnerability Exploitability exchange document, Docker's assessment of which CVEs actually affect this image and which don't apply, so you can focus on real risk instead of chasing false positives.

DHI Image Sources

Available

A link to everything used to build the image, package source code, Git repos, and build files, so you can audit or reproduce the build and stay compliant with open source licenses.

About Linkerd Controller

Linkerd⁠ is a CNCF service mesh for Kubernetes. The Linkerd controller image runs the control plane components that configure the mesh: destination serves service discovery and routing information to the proxies, identity issues their mutual TLS certificates, proxy-injector adds the proxy to pods, sp-validator validates service profiles, heartbeat reports anonymous version checks, and service-mirror mirrors services between clusters for the Linkerd multicluster extension. The same image carries the policy controller that serves inbound authorization policy to the proxies and keeps the policy resource status up to date.

This image is the controller container the Linkerd Helm chart runs for the linkerd-destination, linkerd-identity and linkerd-proxy-injector deployments and for the linkerd-heartbeat job.
