I understand your concern about security vulnerabilities. We regularly update our images with the latest system packages; however, certain CVEs may persist until they are patched in the OS or application. Additionally, some CVEs remain unfixed due to the absence of available patches. In vulnerability scanners like Trivy, you can use the --ignore-unfixed flag to ignore such CVEs. You can learn more about our CVE policy here.

The Bitnami Application Catalog (OpenSource) is built on Debian 12 (Debian 11 was discontinued from the public catalog long time ago). Additionally, as part of VMware, Bitnami offers a custom container and Helm Charts catalog based on various base images, such as Debian 11 & 12, PhotonOS 5, Ubuntu 22.04 & 24.04, RedHat UBI 8 & 9, and custom golden images. You can explore these options through the VMware Tanzu Application Catalog.

For instance, in the case of Memcached, the latest version doesn't contain fixable CVEs:
