* fix(cpe): cap sub-selection prefixes to bound candidate cross-product a name with thousands of `-`/`_` separators produced one vendor and product candidate per segment, and the vendor x product cross-product made CPE generation roughly cubic in time and memory (8KB name: ~250s, 4.8GB RSS). `generateSubSelections` now stops after 10 prefixes. The full name is still a candidate, so real package names are unaffected. Signed-off-by: Alex Goodman <wagoodman@users.noreply.github.com> * fix(cpe): bound candidate count and field length before the cross-product the prefix cap only covered one way to inflate the vendor x product cross-product in `FromPackageAttributes`. Java groupIDs add a vendor (and, with no artifactID, a product) per dot segment, and .NET executables add one of each per file, so a 1000-segment `Bundle-SymbolicName` still produced ~1M CPEs and several GB. - vendor and product candidates are each capped at 64 (shortest first, so truncation is deterministic) - names, versions, and candidates over 512 bytes are skipped, since every byte is paid once per CPE in key building and regex validation real packages produce around a dozen candidates with names well under 100 bytes, so output for real inputs is unchanged. Also corrects the earlier comment: prefixes only become vendor candidates and the cost was quadratic, not cubic.

Syft
A CLI tool and Go library for generating a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) from container images and filesystems. Exceptional for vulnerability detection when used with a scanner like Grype.
Features
- Generates SBOMs for container images, filesystems, archives (see the docs for a full list of supported scan targets)
- Supports dozens of packaging ecosystems (e.g. Alpine (apk), Debian (dpkg), RPM, Go, Python, Java, JavaScript, Ruby, Rust, PHP, .NET, and many more)
- Supports OCI, Docker, Singularity, and more image formats
- Works seamlessly with Grype for vulnerability scanning
- Multiple output formats (CycloneDX, SPDX, Syft JSON, and more) including the ability to convert between SBOM formats
- Create signed SBOM attestations using the in-toto specification
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
Tip
