Research Vulnerabilities by Software
Search for known vulnerabilities affecting specific software products, libraries, or frameworks in your stack.
Supply Chain Security
Assess supply chain security by scanning dependencies for vulnerabilities, checking for incidents, and analyzing risk.
Software supply chain attacks have become one of the fastest-growing threat categories, with compromised dependencies, typosquatting, and maintainer account takeovers putting downstream applications at risk. Understanding your dependency risk requires more than just CVE scanning; it demands awareness of the broader supply chain threat landscape.
This workflow combines vulnerability scanning of your dependency tree with real-time monitoring for supply chain incidents and deep analysis of supply chain risk factors like maintainer trust and dependency depth. It helps teams make informed decisions about which dependencies to use, update, or replace.
Steps
1
Scan Dependencies for Vulnerabilities
Search the vulnerability database for known CVEs affecting your third-party dependencies and libraries.
Input: List of dependencies with version numbers from your software bill of materials.
Output: Known vulnerabilities in dependencies with severity scores and affected version ranges.
2
Check for Supply Chain Incidents
Search for recent supply chain security incidents, compromised packages, and typosquatting attacks affecting your dependencies.
Input: Package names and ecosystems to search for supply chain incidents.
Output: Recent supply chain incidents, compromised package alerts, and malicious package reports.
3
Analyze Supply Chain Risk
Research the overall supply chain risk posture including maintainer trust, dependency depth, and ecosystem health.
Input: Critical dependencies and supply chain concerns to analyze in depth.
Output: Supply chain risk assessment with maintainer analysis, dependency tree risks, and mitigation strategies.
Benefits
- Identify known vulnerabilities across your entire dependency tree
- Stay informed about supply chain incidents affecting your packages
- Assess maintainer trust and dependency health beyond just CVE counts
