deploy a first instance of the target software to the computing environment; and
subsequent to deploying the first instance to the computing environment:
determine that a dependency, among the dependencies relied upon by the target software, has a vulnerability;
in response to determining that the dependency has the vulnerability, build an updated version of the customized image file in which a first version of the dependency that includes the vulnerability is replaced by a second version of the dependency that lacks the vulnerability;
