Thanks to the great work from the dev team, the CVE count has dropped markedly after #1490 got resolved! However, the following issues remain:

Skimming this, it looks like the low hanging fruit is netty, micrometer, and elasticsearch. Knocking those out should result in a pretty solid state.

Additionally, two questions for the community:

  1. I noticed that the original cleanup made its way into 3.32.0-rc.25, but then it looks like rc.25 got yanked and the fixes are not present in the resulting 3.32.0. Is there an estimate of when a release will be cut with the security cleanups?
  2. Skimming the remaining vulnerabilities, are perl and libssh2 actually required for the functioning of the image? Could these be resolved with a lighter base image? Or, from your expertise, is there a reason not to just remove them in a post-release customization patch on our end?
