A scanner for end-of-life (EOL) software in container images, filesystems, and SBOMs.
Supports the following image sources:
xeol yourrepo/yourimage:tag defaults to using images from a Docker daemon
xeol path/to/yourproject a Docker tar, OCI tar, OCI directory, SIF container, or generic filesystem directory
You can also explicitly specify the scheme to use:
xeol podman:yourrepo/yourimage:tag explicitly use the Podman daemon
xeol docker:yourrepo/yourimage:tag explicitly use the Docker daemon
xeol docker-archive:path/to/yourimage.tar use a tarball from disk for archives created from "docker save"
xeol oci-archive:path/to/yourimage.tar use a tarball from disk for OCI archives (from Podman or otherwise)
xeol oci-dir:path/to/yourimage read directly from a path on disk for OCI layout directories (from Skopeo or otherwise)
xeol singularity:path/to/yourimage.sif read directly from a Singularity Image Format (SIF) container on disk
xeol dir:path/to/yourproject read directly from a path on disk (any directory)
xeol sbom:path/to/syft.json read Syft JSON from path on disk
xeol registry:yourrepo/yourimage:tag pull image directly from a registry (no container runtime required)
xeol purl:path/to/purl/file read a newline separated file of purls from a path on disk
You can also pipe in Syft JSON directly:
syft yourimage:tag -o json | xeol
Usage:
xeol [IMAGE] [flags]
xeol [command]
Available Commands:
completion Generate a shell completion for xeol (listing local docker images)
db EOL database operations
help Help about any command
version show version information
Flags:
--api-key string set the API key for xeol.io. When this is set, scans will be uploaded to xeol.io.
-c, --config string xeol configuration file
--distro string distro to match against in the format: <distro>:<version>
-f, --fail-on-eol-found set the return code to 1 if an EOL package is found
--file string file to write the default report output to (default is STDOUT)
-h, --help help for xeol
-l, --lookahead string an optional lookahead specifier when matching EOL dates (e.g. 'none', '1d', '1w', '1m', '1y'). Packages are matched when their EOL date < today+lookahead (default "1y")
--name string set the name of the target being analyzed
-o, --output stringArray report output formatter, formats=[json table]
--platform string an optional platform specifier for container image sources (e.g. 'linux/arm64', 'linux/arm64/v8', 'arm64', 'linux')
--project-name string manually set the name of the project being analyzed for xeol.io. If you are running xeol inside a git repository, this will be automatically detected.
-q, --quiet suppress all logging output
-s, --scope string selection of layers to analyze, options=[squashed all-layers] (default "squashed")
--show-vuln-count show the number of vulnerabilities found for each package (default is false)
-v, --verbose count increase verbosity (-v = info, -vv = debug)
--version version for xeol
Use "xeol [command] --help" for more information about a command.
