### Available variables
Container Scanning can be [configured](#overriding-the-container-scanning-template)
using environment variables.
| Environment Variable | Description | Default |
| ------ | ------ | ------ |
| `KLAR_TRACE` | Set to true to enable more verbose output from klar. | `"false"` |
| `DOCKER_USER` | Username for accessing a Docker registry requiring authentication. | `$CI_REGISTRY_USER` |
| `DOCKER_PASSWORD` | Password for accessing a Docker registry requiring authentication. | `$CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD` |
| `CLAIR_OUTPUT` | Severity level threshold. Vulnerabilities with severity level higher than or equal to this threshold will be outputted. Supported levels are `Unknown`, `Negligible`, `Low`, `Medium`, `High`, `Critical` and `Defcon1`. | `Unknown` |
| `REGISTRY_INSECURE` | Allow [Klar](https://github.com/optiopay/klar) to access insecure registries (HTTP only). Should only be set to `true` when testing the image locally. | `"false"` |
| `CLAIR_VULNERABILITIES_DB_URL` | This variable is explicitly set in the [services section](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/30522ca8b901223ac8c32b633d8d67f340b159c1/lib/gitlab/ci/templates/Security/Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml#L17-19) of the `Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml` file and defaults to `clair-vulnerabilities-db`. This value represents the address that the [postgres server hosting the vulnerabilities definitions](https://hub.docker.com/r/arminc/clair-db) is running on and **shouldn't be changed** unless you're running the image locally as described in the [Running the scanning tool](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/klar/#running-the-scanning-tool) section of the [klar readme](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/klar). | `clair-vulnerabilities-db` |
| `CI_APPLICATION_REPOSITORY` | Docker repository URL for the image to be scanned. | `$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE/$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG` |
| `CI_APPLICATION_TAG` | Docker respository tag for the image to be scanned. | `$CI_COMMIT_SHA` |
| `CLAIR_DB_IMAGE_TAG` | The Docker image tag for the [postgres server hosting the vulnerabilities definitions](https://hub.docker.com/r/arminc/clair-db). It can be useful to override this value with a specific version, for example, to provide a consistent set of vulnerabilities for integration testing purposes. | `latest` |
