Why use Bitnami Images?

• Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
• With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
• Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
• All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading Linux distribution.
• All Bitnami images available in Docker Hub are signed with Docker Content Trust (DCT). You can use DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST=1 to verify the integrity of the images.
• Bitnami container images are released daily with the latest distribution packages available.

This CVE scan report contains a security report with all open CVEs. To get the list of actionable security issues, find the "latest" tag, click the vulnerability report link under the corresponding "Security scan" field and then select the "Only show fixable" filter on the next page.

Deprecation Note (2020-08-18)

The formatting convention for prod tags has been changed:

• BRANCH-debian-10-prod is now tagged as BRANCH-prod-debian-10
• VERSION-debian-10-rX-prod is now tagged as VERSION-prod-debian-10-rX
• latest-prod is now deprecated

What are prod tagged containers for?

Containers tagged prod are production containers based on minideb. They contain the minimal dependencies required by an application to work.

They don't include development dependencies, so they are commonly used in multi-stage builds as the target image. Application code and dependencies should be copied from a different container.

The resultant containers only contain the necessary pieces of software to run the application. Therefore, they are smaller and safer.

Get this image

The recommended way to get the Bitnami Java Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.

$ docker pull bitnami/java:latest

To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the list of available versions in the Docker Hub Registry.

$ docker pull bitnami/java:[TAG]

If you wish, you can also build the image yourself.

$ docker build -t bitnami/java 'https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-java.git#master:17/debian-10'

Configuration

Running your Java jar or war

The default work directory for the Java image is /app. You can mount a folder from your host here that includes your Java jar or war, and run it normally using the java command.

$ docker run -it --name java -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/java:latest \
  java -jar package.jar

or using Docker Compose:

java:
  image: bitnami/java:latest
  command: "java -jar package.jar"
  volumes:
    - .:/app

Replace the default truststore using a custom base image

In case you are replacing the default minideb base image with a custom base image (based on Debian), it is possible to replace the default truststore located in the /opt/bitnami/java/lib/security folder. This is done by setting the JAVA_EXTRA_SECURITY_DIR docker build ARG variable, which needs to point to a location that contains a cacerts file that would substitute the originally bundled truststore. In the following example we will use a minideb fork that contains a custom cacerts file in the /bitnami/java/extra-security folder:

• In the Dockerfile, replace FROM docker.io/bitnami/minideb:buster to use a custom image, defined with the MYJAVAFORK:TAG placeholder:

- FROM bitnami/minideb:latest
+ FROM MYFORK:TAG

• Run docker build setting the value of JAVA_EXTRA_SECURITY_DIR. Remember to replace the MYJAVAFORK:TAG placeholder.

docker build --build-arg JAVA_EXTRA_SECURITY_DIR=/bitnami/java/extra-security -t MYJAVAFORK:TAG .

Maintenance

Upgrade this image

Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of Java, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container.

Step 1: Get the updated image

$ docker pull bitnami/java:latest

or if you're using Docker Compose, update the value of the image property to bitnami/java:latest.

Step 2: Remove the currently running container

$ docker rm -v java

or using Docker Compose:

$ docker-compose rm -v java

Step 3: Run the new image

Re-create your container from the new image.

$ docker run --name java bitnami/java:latest

or using Docker Compose:

$ docker-compose up java

Notable Changes

1.8.252-debian-10-r0, 11.0.7-debian-10-r7, and 15.0.1-debian-10-r20

• Java distribution has been migrated from AdoptOpenJDK to OpenJDK Liberica. As part of VMware, we have an agreement with Bell Software to distribute the Liberica distribution of OpenJDK. That way, we can provide support & the latest versions and security releases for Java.
