Code Review

This pull request, automatically generated by Snyk, aims to upgrade the Alpine base image to fix a security vulnerability. However, the suggested version alpine:3.23.2 is invalid and will break the build. Additionally, the Dockerfile depends on Python 2, which is not available in Alpine versions newer than 3.15. A more appropriate fix would be to upgrade to alpine:3.15, which resolves the vulnerability while retaining Python 2 support. I have added a comment with a suggestion to correct the base image version.

critical

The proposed Alpine version 3.23.2 is not a valid Alpine release. This will cause the Docker build to fail as it won't be able to find the base image.

Furthermore, this Dockerfile relies on python2, which has been removed from Alpine repositories since version 3.16. Upgrading to any recent version of Alpine (like 3.16 or newer) will break the build because the python2 package cannot be installed. The script ssd.py in this directory is written for Python 2.

The last major Alpine version that includes python2 is 3.15. To fix the security vulnerability while maintaining Python 2 compatibility, I suggest using alpine:3.15.
