All official Seerr images are cryptographically signed and include a verified [Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)](https://cyclonedx.org/).
To confirm that the container image you are using is authentic and unmodified, please refer to the [Verifying Signed Images](/using-jellyseerr/advanced/verifying-signed-images) guide.

You may alternatively use a third-party updating mechanism, such as [Watchtower](https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower) or [Ouroboros](https://github.com/pyouroboros/ouroboros), to keep Jellyseerr up-to-date automatically.

# Verifying Signed Images
All Seerr container images published to GitHub Container Registry (GHCR) are cryptographically signed using [Sigstore Cosign](https://docs.sigstore.dev/quickstart/quickstart-cosign/).
This ensures that the images you pull are authentic, tamper-proof, and built by the official Seerr release pipeline.
Each image also includes a CycloneDX SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) attestation, generated with [Trivy](https://aquasecurity.github.io/trivy/), providing transparency about all dependencies included in the image.
---
## Prerequisites
You will need the following tools installed:
- [Cosign](https://docs.sigstore.dev/cosign/system_config/installation/)
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) **or**
- [Podman](https://podman.io/getting-started/installation) (including [Skopeo](https://github.com/containers/skopeo/blob/main/install.md))
```bash
cosign version
```
If using **Podman**, ensure `skopeo` is available:
```bash
skopeo --version
```
---
## Image Locations
Official Seerr images are available from:
- GitHub Container Registry (GHCR): `ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:<tag>`
You can view all available tags on the [Seerr Releases page](https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/releases).
---
## Verifying a Specific Release Tag
Each tagged release (for example `v2.7.4`) is immutable and cryptographically signed.
Verification should always be performed using the image digest (SHA256).
### Retrieve the Image Digest
<Tabs groupId="verify-methods">
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
```bash
docker buildx imagetools inspect docker.io/seerr-team/seerr:v2.7.4 --format '{{json .Manifest.Digest}}' | tr -d '"'
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="podman" label="Podman / Skopeo">
```bash
skopeo inspect docker://ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:v2.7.4 --format '{{.Digest}}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
Example output:
```
sha256:abcd1234...
```
---
### Verify the Image Signature
<Tabs groupId="registry-methods">
<TabItem value="ghcr" label="GitHub Container Registry (GHCR)">
```bash
cosign verify ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--certificate-identity "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v2.7.4" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com"
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="dockerhub" label="Docker Hub">
```bash
cosign verify seerr/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--certificate-identity "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v2.7.4" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com"
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::info Successful Verification Example
Verification for `ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234...`
The following checks were performed:
- Cosign claims validated
- Signatures verified against the transparency log
- Certificate issued by Fulcio to the expected workflow identity
:::
---
## Verifying the `latest` Tag
:::warning Latest Tag Warning
The `latest` tag is **mutable**, meaning it will change with each new release.
Always verify the digest that `latest` currently points to.
:::
### Retrieve the Digest for `latest`
<Tabs groupId="verify-methods">
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
```bash
docker buildx imagetools inspect ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:latest --format '{{json .Manifest.Digest}}' | tr -d '"'
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="podman" label="Podman / Skopeo">
```bash
skopeo inspect docker://ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:latest --format '{{.Digest}}'
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
Example output:
```
sha256:abcd1234...
```
### Verify the Signature
<Tabs groupId="registry-methods">
<TabItem value="ghcr" label="GHCR">
```bash
cosign verify ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--certificate-identity-regexp "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v.*" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com"
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="dockerhub" label="Docker Hub">
```bash
cosign verify seerr/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--certificate-identity-regexp "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v.*" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com"
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::tip
The wildcard `v.*` ensures verification works for any versioned release that `latest` represents.

## Verifying SBOM Attestations
Each image includes a CycloneDX SBOM attestation.
### Verify the Attestation
```bash
cosign verify-attestation ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--type cyclonedx \
--certificate-identity "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v2.7.4" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com"
```
:::info Successful Verification Example
Verification for `ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234...`
The following checks were performed:
- Cosign claims validated
- Signatures verified against the transparency log
- Certificate issued by Fulcio to the expected workflow identity
:::
### Extract the SBOM for Inspection
```bash
cosign verify-attestation ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr@sha256:abcd1234... \
--type cyclonedx \
--certificate-identity "https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v2.7.4" \
--certificate-oidc-issuer "https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com" | jq -r '.payload | @base64d' > sbom.json
```
You can open `sbom.json` in a CycloneDX viewer or analyse it with [Trivy](https://aquasecurity.github.io/trivy/) or [Dependency-Track](https://dependencytrack.org/).
---
## Expected Certificate Identity
The expected certificate identity for all signed Seerr images is:
```
https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/.github/workflows/release.yml@refs/tags/v*
```
This confirms that the image was:
- Built by the official Seerr Release workflow
- Produced from the seerr-team/seerr repository
- Signed using GitHubs OIDC identity via Sigstore Fulcio
---
## Troubleshooting
| Issue | Likely Cause | Suggested Fix |
|-------|---------------|----------------|
| `no matching signatures` | Incorrect digest or tag | Retrieve the digest again using Docker or Skopeo |
| `certificate identity does not match expected` | Workflow reference changed | Ensure your `--certificate-identity` matches this documentation |
| `cosign: command not found` | Cosign not installed | Install Cosign from the official release |
| `certificate expired` | Old release | Verify a newer tag or digest |
