rbashish/ubuntu repository overview

⁠Custom Patched Ubuntu Base Images

This repository contains unofficial, custom-built Ubuntu base images that are regularly updated with the latest security patches, software updates, and minor performance optimizations. These images serve as a reliable, production-ready foundation for your containerized applications.

⁠Available Tags

• 24.04-patched - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat) base image with all standard security updates pre-applied.

⁠Image Highlights

• Security First: Pre-executed apt-get update && apt-get upgrade to eliminate initial vulnerability scans.
• Minimal Footprint: Cleans up temporary package caches (rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*) to keep the layer size as lean as possible.
• Standardized Base: Maintains full compatibility with official Ubuntu configurations.
