Question: Native SBOM vulnerability analysis in Faraday #538

Description

@quentingosset

Hello,

I may be misunderstanding Faraday's purpose, but I have a question regarding dependency vulnerability management.

My goal would be to import a CycloneDX SBOM (or simply a list of dependencies and versions) and have Faraday itself retrieve vulnerability data from sources such as NVD, perform the CVE correlation/mapping against the detected dependency versions, and continuously track newly disclosed vulnerabilities over time.

From what I understand, the current workflow seems to rely on external tools such as OWASP Dependency-Check to already perform the analysis and generate findings, which are then imported into Faraday.

Is there a way for Faraday to perform this CVE enrichment and dependency-to-vulnerability mapping itself, effectively acting as a replacement for Dependency-Track? Or is Faraday intentionally designed to only aggregate and manage findings produced by other security tools?

Thank you.
