SBOM

Trivy analyzes the SBOM information contained within the container images provided by Bitnami. The SBOM files are located at /opt/bitnami/<component>/.spdx-<component>.spdx.

Vulnerability

Since Bitnami has its own vulnerability database, it uses these for vulnerability detection of applications and packages distributed by Bitnami.

Note

Trivy does not support vulnerability detection of independently compiled binaries, so even if you scan container images like nginx:1.15.2, vulnerabilities in Nginx cannot be detected. This is because main applications like Nginx are not installed by the package manager. However, in the case of Bitnami images, since these SBOMs are stored within the image, scanning bitnami/nginx:1.15.2 allows for the detection of vulnerabilities in Nginx.

Fixed Version

Trivy refers to the Bitnami database. Please note that these may differ from the upstream fixed versions.

Severity

Similar to Fixed versions, it follows Bitnami's vulnerability database.

Status

Trivy supports the following vulnerability statuses for Bitnami packages.

Status Supported
Fixed
Affected
Under Investigation
Will Not Fix
Fix Deferred
End of Life

License

If licenses are included in the SBOM distributed by Bitnami, they will be used for scanning.
