Outdated official docker images for ASP.NET Core runtime

The official docker images for ASP.NET Core runtime at https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-dotnet-aspnet are outdated.

@barruka this is the EF Core repo, that's unrelated to ASP.NET. Moving to the ASP.NET repo.

All .NET container builds come from the dotnet/dotnet-docker repository, which are published primarily to Microsoft Artifact Registry.

See here for the policy on when container images are updated.

Ok but just browsing https://hub.docker.com/_/microsoft-dotnet, the first section "Featured Repos" links to dotnet/aspnet: ASP.NET Core Runtime, where you can read:

"ASP.NET Core Runtime"
"By Microsoft"
"Official images for the ASP.NET Core runtime"

So, which team has the responsability of keeping this updated?

This repo is not fulfilling the images updated policy, because 8.0.4 was released a month ago and there are no 8.0.4 builds available.

The team who maintain dotnet/dotnet-docker.

I can't speak to that, but .NET 8.0.5 was released yesterday and that's now the current supported version for .NET 8.

You should prefer to consume container images from Microsoft Artifact Registry, rather than Dockerhub. See this announcement from 2019: .NET Core Container Images now Published to Microsoft Container Registry

We will continue publishing images for the first two tags forms (version-less and two-part versions) for the supported lifetime of the associated versions. We will not publish any new three-part versions (like the last example) to Docker Hub, but only to MCR. We expect that most scripts and Dockerfile files use either of the first two forms of tags, or are manually updated to adopt three-part tags on some regular cadence. If they are manually updated, they can be manually updated to pull images from MCR.
