1.6.0

Note

  $ docker scout cves sbom://path/to/sbom.spdx.json
  

• Add support for SBOM files in syft-json format

  $ docker scout cves sbom://path/to/sbom.syft.json

  • Prune cached EPSS files with docker scout cache prune --epss

Bug fixes and enhancements

• Use Windows cache from WSL2

  When inside WSL2 with Docker Desktop running, the Docker Scout CLI plugin now uses the cache from Windows. That way, if an image has been indexed for instance by Docker Desktop there's no need anymore to re-index it on WSL2 side.

• Indexing is now blocked in the CLI if it has been disabled using Settings Management feature.

• Fix a panic that would occur when analyzing a single-image oci-dir input

• Improve local attestation support with the containerd image store
