sbom-sentinel 1.0.2

End-to-end SBOM generation and vulnerability intelligence pipeline

sbom-sentinel

SBOM generation and vulnerability intelligence pipeline.

Wraps Syft and Grype behind a five-command CLI, enriches results with the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, and produces a timestamped Markdown report.

Installation

Requires Syft and Grype on PATH.

pip install sbom-sentinel

Quick Start

Run the full pipeline (SBOM + scan + report) in one command:

sbom-sentinel run --target ./myapp --name myapp --fail-on high
sbom-sentinel run --target docker:nginx:latest --name nginx --fail-on high
sbom-sentinel run --target https://github.com/org/repo --name repo --fail-on high

Or run each stage individually:

sbom-sentinel sbom --target ./myapp --name myapp
sbom-sentinel scan --sbom sbom_output/myapp_*.spdx.json --name myapp --fail-on high
sbom-sentinel report --scan artifacts/json/myapp_*.json --name myapp

Generate an HTML report instead of Markdown:

sbom-sentinel run --target ./myapp --name myapp --report-format html

Compare two scans to see what changed:

sbom-sentinel diff --old artifacts/json/myapp_old.json --new artifacts/json/myapp_new.json --name myapp

Features

• SPDX-JSON SBOMs from local directories, container images, or Git URLs
• Vulnerability scanning via Grype with severity gating (--fail-on)
• CISA KEV enrichment with date-stamped local cache
• OpenVEX / CSAF suppression with KEV conflict detection
• Markdown or standalone HTML reports
• JSON or SARIF scan output for GitHub Code Scanning
• Verbose mode (-v) for diagnostic output

Commands

Command	Description
sbom	Generate an SPDX-JSON SBOM via Syft
scan	Scan an SBOM for vulnerabilities via Grype
report	Generate a Markdown or HTML report with KEV enrichment
diff	Compare two scans and report new / resolved CVEs
run	Run the full pipeline (sbom + scan + report, or scan + report from an existing SBOM)

Pass --help to any command for the full option reference.

VEX suppression

Pass an OpenVEX or CSAF document to suppress findings marked not_affected. Any suppressed CVE that also appears in CISA KEV is flagged as a conflict requiring manual review.

sbom-sentinel run --sbom sbom.spdx.json --name myapp --vex statements.vex.json

Exit Codes

Code	Meaning
0	Success
1	Runtime error -- tool not found, scan threshold met, timeout, or parse failure
2	Usage error -- missing required option or invalid argument
