Tim Olshansky 551442b1bc fix(terraform): generate NVD-style terraform_provider CPEs for terraform lock packages (#5261)
* fix: generate terraform-provider-specific CPEs for terraform lock packages

The terraform-lock-cataloger sets Language to Go, which causes the Go CPE
heuristic to generate application-level CPEs for terraform providers. For
example, registry.terraform.io/grafana/grafana produces the same CPE as
the Grafana application itself, leading grype to flag providers with
unrelated CVEs.

This adds terraform-specific vendor/product candidate functions that
generate CPEs matching the NVD convention for terraform providers
(e.g. terraform-provider-grafana instead of grafana), with terraform
as the target software qualifier.

* fix: align terraform provider CPEs with NVD terraform_provider convention

NVD records terraform providers with a fixed "terraform_provider" product
and the provider type in target_sw, e.g.
cpe:2.3:a:hashicorp:terraform_provider:*:*:*:*:*:vault:*:*

Generate <namespace>:terraform_provider:<version>:...:<type> instead of
<namespace>:terraform-provider-<type>:<version>:...:terraform, which never
appears in NVD.

Features

Tip

New to Syft? Check out the Getting Started guide for a walkthrough!

Installation

The quickest way to get up and going:

curl -sSfL https://get.anchore.io/syft | sudo sh -s -- -b /usr/local/bin

Tip

See Installation docs for more ways to get Syft, including Homebrew, Docker, Scoop, Chocolatey, Nix, and more!

The basics

See the packages within a container image or directory:

# container image
syft alpine:latest

# directory
syft ./my-project

To get an SBOM, specify one or more output formats:

# SBOM to stdout
syft <image> -o cyclonedx-json

# Multiple SBOMs to files
syft <image> -o spdx-json=./spdx.json -o cyclonedx-json=./cdx.json

Local containers-storage images

On Linux, syft can scan images from a local containers-storage store (e.g. built with Buildah or Podman) when asked explicitly; plain image references never look there:

syft --from containers-storage localhost/myimage:latest

# rootless stores must be read from inside the builder's user namespace
podman unshare syft --from containers-storage localhost/myimage:latest

This is included in the Linux release binaries. When building from source, add -tags containers_image_openpgp,exclude_graphdriver_btrfs.

Tip
