Triage agent for golang CVEs does not look into SBOMs #623

Description

@zdohnal

Description

Golang uses static linking of sources which are downloaded during build, so the final rpm has bundled affected code which can be found out only via inspecting SBOM of the package. Every package which uses statically linked languages are affected by this.

Benefit

More precise triage results of agent for golang CVEs triage process.

Importance

Many new projects use statically linked languages, so CVE triage of them by Ymir is rendered useless for such CVEs.

Workaround

  • There is an existing workaround that can be used until this feature is implemented.

Participation

  • I am willing to submit a pull request for this issue. (Packit team is happy to help!)
