It is common to have a BOM that contains vulnerability information (VDR) as many security tools, especially SCA, produce such output. See https://cyclonedx.org/capabilities/vdr/ Optionally the analysis section can be done as well, but is much less prevalent. See https://cyclonedx.org/capabilities/vex/ |
