So is running `docker build` and the `RUN apt update` line doing a cache hit, except the latter is silent.
The problem solved by pinning to the snapshot is not to magically be secure, it's knowing what a given image is made of so you can trivially assert which ones are safe and which ones aren't.
In both cases you have to rebuild an image anyway so updating the snapshot is just a step that makes it explicit in code instead of implicit.
where does the apt update connect to? If it is an up to date package repo you get fixes. Howerer there are lots of reasons it would not. You better know if this is your plan.
