SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Audits project dependencies for known vulnerabilities, provenance, and supply-chain risk to prevent compromised builds and risky transitive dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated vulnerability scanning across Go modules and Maven/JVM projects.
  • CI integration and provenance verification to enforce secure builds.
  • Use Case: Ensure dependency provenance and version pinning in continuous delivery workflows.

Quick Start

Enable and run the vulnerability audit in your CI pipeline to automatically scan dependencies with govulncheck and OWASP Dependency-Check.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit dependencies for known vulnerabilities in Go modules?

To audit dependencies for known vulnerabilities in Go modules, this skill automates scanning using govulncheck to detect supply-chain risks and enforce version pinning within CI workflows.

Can I scan Maven JVM projects for supply-chain risk in a CI pipeline?

Yes, you can scan Maven JVM projects for supply-chain risk in a CI pipeline by integrating OWASP Dependency-Check to automatically verify dependency provenance and identify compromised builds.

What is dependency provenance verification and when do I need it?

Dependency provenance verification validates the origin and integrity of packages to prevent compromised builds. You need it during continuous delivery workflows to ensure dependencies are securely sourced and pinned.

Does this vulnerability audit work with both govulncheck and OWASP Dependency-Check?

Yes, this vulnerability audit works with both govulncheck for Go modules and OWASP Dependency-Check for Maven JVM projects, enforcing a checklist-driven workflow to scan, pin versions, and verify provenance.

What is the best way to prevent risky transitive dependencies in continuous delivery?

The best way to prevent risky transitive dependencies in continuous delivery is enforcing a checklist-driven workflow that automatically scans dependencies, pins versions, and verifies provenance across your ecosystems.
