Chapter 1. Introduction

Red Hat’s Trusted Profile Analyzer (RHTPA) is a proactive service that assists in risk management of Open Source Software (OSS) packages and dependencies. The Trusted Profile Analyzer service brings awareness to and remediation of OSS vulnerabilities discovered within the software supply chain.

The Red Hat Trusted Profile Analyzer documentation is available here.

Chapter 2. New features and enhancements

A list of all major enhancements, and new features introduced in this release of Red Hat Trusted Profile Analyzer (RHTPA).

The features and enhancements added by this release are:

Validating the serialNumber property in CycloneDX SBOM files

With this release, we added a process to validate the existence of the serialNumber property in a CycloneDX-formatted Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) file when uploading the SBOM to RHTPA. Uploading a CycloneDX SBOM file with no serialNumber gives an error message.

CVE impact to an SBOM

You can see Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) data from the Open Source Vulnerability (OSV) database when scanning a software bill of materials (SBOM). By default, scanning an SBOM gives you all the publicly collected vulnerabilities affecting the packages that make up the SBOM.

Chapter 3. Bug fixes

In this release of Red Hat Trusted Profile Analyzer (RHTPA), we fixed the following bugs.

Uploading a CycloneDX SBOM with control characters fails

When uploading a CycloneDX-formatted software bill of materials (SBOM) file to RHTPA you can get parsing errors when control characters are present, such as \n. With this release, we fixed the validation logic when uploading a CycloneDX-formatted SBOM file so you can successfully upload an SBOM file into RHTPA.

Fixed inconsistent vulnerability information displayed on the SBOM details page

Only a subset of related vulnerability data was being reported on the software bill of materials (SBOM) details page. With this release, we fixed this reporting problem. You now have consistent results no matter where you are viewing the vulnerability data with RHTPA.

Validating the serialNumber string for compliance

The serialNumber property’s string value in CycloneDX-formatted software bill of materials (SBOM) files must match a certain regular expression. With this release, we check the serialNumber string to see if it conforms to the compliancy standard set by CycloneDX.
