Is it safe to assume that hashing (1) every file on disk, or (2) any given file on disk at random, will yield random bits with uniform probability; and (3) why Argon2 instead of e.g. only two rounds of SHA256?
https://github.com/google/osv.dev/blob/master/README.md#usin... :
> We provide a Go based tool that will scan your dependencies, and check them against the OSV database for known vulnerabilities via the OSV API. ... With package metadata, not (a file hash, package) database that could be generated from OSV and the actual package files instead of their manifest of already-calculated checksums.
Might as well be heating a pool on the roof with all of this waste heat from hashing binaries build from code of unknown static and dynamic quality.
Add'l useful formats:
> Currently it is able to scan various lockfiles, debian docker containers, SPDX and CycloneDB SBOMs, and git repositories
