 # v1.7.0
 ## Announcement
 * To improve the security of the container images, the base image will be switched from [Amazon Linux 2](https://hub.docker.com/_/amazonlinux) to [EKS Distro Minimal](https://gallery.ecr.aws/eks-distro-build-tooling/eks-distro-minimal-base-csi-ebs) in an upcoming release. The new minimal base image only contains the necessary driver dependencies which means it will not include a shell. **Please be aware that while this change won't break workloads, it may break processes for debugging if you are using a shell**.
