Go command-line vulnerability scanner for container images and filesystems with CVE detection.
Why you might care
Grype scans OCI container images and local filesystems for known vulnerabilities in dependencies, integrating easily into CI/CD pipelines and supply-chain workflows. It's faster than layered scanning approaches and outputs in multiple formats (JSON, SARIF, CycloneDX) for compliance and toolchain integration.
