Webinar: FOSS License Management – meta-osselot for OSSelot-Data in OpenEmbedded

By automation, licensing, News, Webinar

Jasper Orschulko presented the concept of the meta-osselot project ( https://github.com/iris-GmbH/meta-osselot ) and how the curated data in OSSelot may be leveraged in OpenEmbedded environments.

This webinar is part of a new series provided by the OpenChain Automation Workgroup to provide insights in good practices for community based IP audits. The good practices shall be used to align on a community wide standard for metadata curation as base for sharing FOSS License Management Data.

Webinar: SPDX 3.1 – Services Profile Overview

By community, legal, licensing, News, security, standards, Webinar

Gary O’Neall of Source Auditor talked about how the new SPDX Services Profile proposal structures information. This profile is likely to have an important on business process management, as it covers topics far beyond open source compliance, with one example being fields for topics like Export Control. Gary’s deep background as a core contributor to the SPDX Project allowed him to contextualize this discussion from a historical perspective.

Webinar: Curating FOSS license information for the OSSelot database

By automation, licensing, News, Webinar

Caren Kresse from OSADL talks about sharing and reusing publicly available FOSS compliance material, as provided by the OSSelot project (https://www.osselot.org/), which requires trust in the reliability of the data. Such trust can be fostered by ensuring high quality and consistency of the data through a standardized curation process and strict review of all contributions. This presentation will demonstrate the curation process for the OSSelot project, present the resulting material, and give an example of how a contribution is reviewed.

Webinar: VulnerableCode technical deep dive into VulnTotal

By automation, News, security, Webinar

The OpenChain Project ran a series of webinars about using open source tools for open source compliance ran between September and December 2021. They have been re-published in the main webinar series to improve discoverability. This episode explores how a tool called VulnTotal can help with open source security management.

Philippe Ombredanne from nexB lead a technical deep dive into VulnTotal on the 7th of February 2023. It was about an aspect of the AboutCode Project, with VulnerableCode providing tools to collect, aggregate and refine software vulnerability information from more than 20 sources and tools to quickly create new “importers”. Called VulnTotal, it came out of Google Summer of Code 2022:

VulnTotal: Cross-validate vulnerability coverage of VulnerableCode (Keshav Priyadarshi)

VulnerableCode is a unique project that collates and cross-references FOSS vulnerability data from multiple sources. Inspired by the VirusTotal multi-scanner virus scanning service, the VulnTotal project will cross-validate the vulnerability coverage of VulnerableCode against other publicly available vulnerability check tools and databases. For instance, a package may be reported as vulnerable by one tool or database but not by another. We can gradually work with these tool providers to keep each other apprised about newly discovered vulnerabilities, making FOSS more secure.
