Top 3 Python supply-chain-security Projects

tern

1 932 3.2 Python

Tern is a software composition analysis tool and Python library that generates a Software Bill of Materials for container images and Dockerfiles. The SBOM that Tern generates will give you a layer-by-layer view of what's inside your container in a variety of formats including human-readable, JSON, HTML, SPDX and more. (by tern-tools)
dep-scan

3 699 8.8 Python

OWASP dep-scan is a next-generation security and risk audit tool based on known vulnerabilities, advisories, and license limitations for project dependencies. Both local repositories and container images are supported as the input, and the tool is ideal for integration.

Project mention: Show devsecops: OWASP dep-scan v5 - a next-generation security and risk audit tool for everyone | /r/devsecops | 2023-12-05

Depscan v5 is the first opensource SCA tool that can perform precision reachability analysis for Java, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Python applications to triage and prioritize the results. We invented an automatic symbols tagger, a lightweight data-flow analyzer, and a static slicer to compute all reachable flows with or without vulnerabilities. We open-sourced all our work, including the specification.

packj

38 614 7.2 Python

Packj stops :zap: Solarwinds-, ESLint-, and PyTorch-like attacks by flagging malicious/vulnerable open-source dependencies ("weak links") in your software supply-chain

Project mention: Rust Without Crates.io | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-14

Creator of Packj [1] here. How do you envision sandboxing/security policies will be specified? Per-lib policies when you've hundreds of dependencies will become overwhelming. Having built an eBPF-based sandbox [2], I anticipate that accuracy will be another challenge here: too restrictive will block functionality, too permissive defeats the purpose.
