-
Feed vulnerabilities - security advisories from specific Linux Distribution vendors against Distribution specific packages.
- Alpine Linux
- CentOS
- Debian
- Oracle Linux

- Ubuntu

Third party feeds - additional data feeds are available for Anchore Enterprise Customers, see On-Premises Feeds Overview for more information.
The Anchore Feed Service collects vulnerability and package data from the upstream sources and normalizes this data to be published as feeds that Anchore Enterprise can subscribe to.
Anchore Enterprise polls the feed service at a user defined interval, by default every six hours, and will download feed data updated since the last sync.
Anchore hosts a public service on the Anchore Cloud which provides access, for free, to all public feeds.
An on-premises feed service is available for commercial customers allowing Anchore Enterprise to synchronize with a locally deployed feed service, without any reliance on Anchore Cloud.
