New scanning tool: Binary analysis and scanning

Everyone can contribute. Help move this issue forward while earning points, leveling up and collecting rewards.

Problem to solve

Customers may have projects designed without package managers, unique firmware, or legacy systems that output to a binary. They may have also received binaries from other teams without access to their code. They are required to scan these outputs to remain compliant.

Proposal

A binary scanning tool that can run analysis on the contents.

These formats may come in various forms:

  • Compression formats (.gz, jar, exe)
  • Archive formats (zip, tar)
  • Firmware
