Hi Peter,

The TSC has discussed this series and is happy for sbom-cve-check to be
updated on wrynose. It's in line with the expectations we had when
wrynose was released, and the upstream maintainer is involved.

For scarthgap it's a different question. That still has the
cve-check.bbclass implementation instead of sbom-cve-check, this would
be whole new framework rather than a set of updates. I wonder if this
can be handled via an LTS mixin layer instead of a backport in OE-core?

Best regards,
