csaf-lint 2022.7.17

Experimental CSAF validator for envelope and body profiles.

CSAF Lint

Experimental CSAF envelope and body profile validator.

License: MIT

In short: The current version of the csaf-lint validates documents in various Common Security Advisory Framework (CSAF) formats against built-in or user custom schema files.

The supported versions are:

• CSAF 2.0 (default is now the 2021.03.23 editor version)
• CSAF 1.2 (aka CVRF 1.2)
• CSAF 1.1 (aka CVRF 1.1)

Caveat Emptor

1. Expect changes to the CSAF v2.0 support because the underlying OASIS specification is undergoing development by the members of the OASIS technical committee. This may lead to breaking changes until the standard is published on committee specification level. The current supported draft JSON Schema versions are from 2021-03-23, 2021-03-19, and 2021-03-07.
2. The previous versions namely CVRF 1.1 and 1.2 were in XML format.
3. The current version CSAF 2.0-candidates are in JSON Schema format.
