I couldn't find anything comparable to Trufflehog for Docker images, even though I have constantly read articles about "secrets discovered in public images." So I built my own (hopefully) comparable tool.
But trufflehog supports docker images already? The trufflehog readme has examples[0]
# to scan from a remote registry
trufflehog docker --image trufflesecurity/secrets
# to scan from the local docker daemon
trufflehog docker --image docker://new_image:tag
# to scan from an image saved as a tarball
trufflehog docker --image file://path_to_image.tar
A small ask: Don't have the main tag like for your product refer to another product. I know what Docker Hub is, but I have no idea what Trufflehog is.
The first like of the GitHub README is much better IMO: layerleak the Docker Hub Secret Scanner
Thanks for the advice! Did not even consider that. I just updated it

[0]: https://github.com/trufflesecurity/trufflehog#11-scan-a-dock...That's true, but as you can see from your paste, Trufflehog requires the docker daemon and is generally pretty resource intensive while scanning.
layerleak has neither of those issues or requirements.
Try it and let me know what you think.

Nothing in his message says it requires the docker daemon? it says it can scan an image from a docker daemon if you want.
I just tried myself and it doesn't require docker at all, you don't need anything docker related even installed on the system.
I tried them both to compare:
- trufflehog: 19 seconds
- layerleak: 26 seconds
