Supported Versions & Release Lines

Aikido Images provides drop-in replacements for popular base images with Critical and High OS vulnerabilities fixed. The full catalog - spanning thousands of images across language runtimes, infrastructure tools, and Kubernetes operators - is available at images.aikido.dev.

This page covers a specific part of the catalog: the release lines that Aikido actively tracks, where a new Aikido Image is built automatically whenever a new upstream release is published.

How version tracking works

A release line is a version pattern - for example, Node 24.x.x or Python 3.13.x - that Aikido monitors on upstream registries for new releases. When a matching tag is published, Aikido automatically builds an Aikido Image for it and makes it available in the catalog. You don't need to request it.

New releases within a tracked line are always picked up automatically. What's not automatic is new major or minor versions - when Python 3.15 or Node 28 are released upstream, Aikido needs to add a new release line before they are tracked. New lines are added as versions reach general availability, and you can also request one.

Rolling tags like node:24 or python:3.13 are supported too - they always resolve to the latest Aikido Image release within that line, so your Dockerfile doesn't need to pin a specific version.
