sbom scanning

About this tag
SBOM scanning is a critical practice for verifying software supply chain security, especially when assessing Microsoft artifacts like Azure Linux. Recent discussions on WindowsForum highlight that Microsoft's product attestations for CVEs such as CVE-2025-38180, CVE-2025-23133, CVE-2025-29087, and CVE-2024-43796 confirm Azure Linux as a carrier of vulnerable open-source libraries, but these attestations do not guarantee that other Microsoft products are unaffected. Security teams are advised to perform artifact-level SBOM scanning across all Microsoft-supplied images, agents, and binaries to identify unverified exposures. The tag covers topics like CSAF/VEX attestations, inventory verification, and holistic remediation strategies for Linux-based and cross-platform vulnerabilities.
