Hide Unfixed Vulnerabilities

By default, Trivy also detects unpatched/unfixed vulnerabilities. This means you can't fix these vulnerabilities even if you update all packages. If you would like to ignore them, use the --ignore-unfixed option.

By Open Policy Agent

[EXPERIMENTAL] This feature might change without preserving backwards compatibility.

Trivy supports Open Policy Agent (OPA) to filter vulnerabilities. You can specify a Rego file with --ignore-policy option.

The Rego package name must be trivy and it must include a rule called ignore which determines if each individual vulnerability should be excluded (ignore=true) or not (ignore=false). In the policy, each vulnerability will be available for inspection as the input variable. The structure of each vulnerability input is the same as for the Trivy JSON output.
There is a built-in Rego library with helper functions that you can import into your policy using: import data.lib.trivy. For more info about the helper functions, look at the library here

To get started, see the example policy.

$ trivy image --ignore-policy contrib/example_filter/basic.rego centos:7
Result
