BomLens

Automated SBOM generation and open-source risk analysis for supply chain security

    BomLens is a supply chain security tool that analyzes the components of your software and automatically produces a CycloneDX 1.6 SBOM (Software Bill of Materials). It scans source code, container images, or binaries to generate an SBOM along with an open-source notice and a security report, and it can also analyze an SBOM or firmware you receive from a supplier to produce an open-source risk report. It was developed by SK Telecom for supply chain security and released as open source.

    Project Information

    Key Features

    Two Jobs in One Tool

    • Generate: scan source code, a container image, or a binary to produce a CycloneDX SBOM, an open-source notice, and a security report
    • Assess open-source risk: analyze an SBOM or firmware received from a supplier to produce an open-source risk report covering licenses and known vulnerabilities
    • Every scan emits the risk report by default

    Broad Input and Language Support

    • Inputs: source folder, GitHub URL, ZIP archive, Docker image, binary and RootFS, existing SBOM, firmware
    • Languages: Java, Python, Node.js, Ruby, PHP, Rust, Go, .NET, C/C++ (Conan, vcpkg)

    Multiple Form Factors

    • Web UI: scan in the browser, watch live logs, and download the results
    • Command-line interface (CLI): integrate into CI/CD pipelines
    • Desktop app: double-click to run on Windows and macOS (no console window; it checks Docker, pulls the image, and opens the UI automatically)

    Deliverables

    • bom.json: CycloneDX SBOM
    • NOTICE.txt, NOTICE.html: open-source notice
    • risk-report.md, risk-report.html: open-source risk report
    • security.json, security.md, security.html: security vulnerability report

    Installation and Usage

    A Docker engine (20.10 or later) is required. On Windows, the free Rancher Desktop is recommended.

    Setup

    git clone https://github.com/sktelecom/sbom-tools.git
    cd sbom-tools
    docker pull ghcr.io/sktelecom/sbom-generator:latest
    

    Web UI

    # Run from the folder where results should be saved; it opens http://localhost:8080
    /path/to/sbom-tools/scripts/scan-sbom.sh --ui
    
    # On Windows, double-click scripts\sbom-ui.bat
    

    In the browser, enter the project name and version, pick a scan target (current folder, GitHub URL, ZIP, SBOM, firmware upload, or Docker image), run the scan, and then view or download the results.

    CLI

    # Generate all deliverables for the current project
    ./scripts/scan-sbom.sh --project MyApp --version 1.0.0 --all --generate-only
    
    # Other inputs (GitHub URL, source archive, Docker image, firmware)
    ./scripts/scan-sbom.sh --git https://github.com/org/repo --project MyApp --version 1.0.0 --all --generate-only
    ./scripts/scan-sbom.sh --target ./src.zip --project MyApp --version 1.0.0 --all --generate-only
    ./scripts/scan-sbom.sh --target nginx:latest --project MyApp --version 1.0.0 --all --generate-only
    ./scripts/scan-sbom.sh --target dev.bin --firmware --project MyApp --version 1.0.0 --all --generate-only
