Chainguard Images are regularly-updated, minimal container images with low-to-zero CVEs.

Chainguard’s pgAdmin image is a minimal, Wolfi-based container image. It mirrors the dpage/pgadmin4
image found on Docker Hub in functionality but has fewer dependencies, minimizing its attack surface.
To deploy pgAdmin with Helm, create a values manifest leveraging Chainguard's image:
Then add the Helm repository:
And install the chart:
Optionally, you can port forward pgAdmin:
pgAdmin will now be accessible via localhost:8080.
Please note that the default email set in the chart is chart@domain.com
and that the default password is SuperSecret
. These should be changed in a production deployment.
You can find additional Helm chart values in this GitHub repository.
Alternatively, Chainguard's pgAdmin image can be used with Docker:
After running this command,pgAdmin will be accessible at localhost:8080.
The official pgAdmin documentation includes additional information on deploying pgAdmin using a container image.

Chainguard Images are a collection of container images designed for security and minimalism.
Many Chainguard Images are distroless; they contain only an open-source application and its runtime dependencies. These images do not even contain a shell or package manager. Chainguard Images are built with Wolfi, our Linux undistro designed to produce container images that meet the requirements of a secure software supply chain.
The main features of Chainguard Images include:
-dev
VariantsAs mentioned previously, Chainguard’s distroless Images have no shell or package manager by default. This is great for security, but sometimes you need these things, especially in builder images. For those cases, most (but not all) Chainguard Images come paired with a -dev
variant which does include a shell and package manager.
Although the -dev
image variants have similar security features as their distroless versions, such as complete SBOMs and signatures, they feature additional software that is typically not necessary in production environments. The general recommendation is to use the -dev
variants only to build the application and then copy all application artifacts into a distroless image, which will result in a final container image that has a minimal attack surface and won’t allow package installations or logins.
That being said, it’s worth noting that -dev
variants of Chainguard Images are completely fine to run in production environments. After all, the -dev
variants are still more secure than many popular container images based on fully-featured operating systems such as Debian and Ubuntu since they carry less software, follow a more frequent patch cadence, and offer attestations for what they include.
