This PR is the follow-up for #1993 in OpenTofu 1.10 that disables the use of
ghcr.io/opentofu/opentofu
as a base image.The reason behind this change, as discussed in #1931, is security. For a secure base image, we would need to re-release this image at least every week, applying package upgrades, which we currently don't have the capacity to do. We are providing instructions in the OpenTofu documentation how to build an OpenTofu base image.
Note
The OpenTofu image is safe to use if you are using it as a CLI tool. We are releasing a new image whenever there is a security update to OpenTofu itself, but we cannot guarantee that all packages (not used by OpenTofu) are up to date in this image at all times.
⚠ Do not merge until the 1.9 branch has been created!
