---
### 10. CycloneDX Version
**Advisory Requirement:**
> Use CycloneDX 1.7 as baseline SBOM envelope.
**StellaOps Implementation:** ⚠️ **Using 1.6**
| Aspect | Status |
|--------|--------|
| Package Version | CycloneDX.Core 10.0.2 |
| Spec Version | 1.6 (v1_7 not in SDK yet) |
| Upgrade Ready | Yes - code prepared for v1_7 enum |
**Blocker:** `CycloneDX.Core` NuGet package does not expose `SpecificationVersion.v1_7` enum value.
**Tracking:** Sprint task 1.3 BLOCKED, awaiting library update.
**Mitigation:** Functional alignment maintained; 1.6 → 1.7 upgrade is non-breaking.
---
## Areas Where StellaOps Exceeds Advisory
1. **More Predicate Types:** 19 vs. advisory's implied 5-8
2. **Offline/Air-Gap Support:** Full bundle-based operation
3. **Regional Crypto:** GOST, SM2/SM3, PQ-safe modes
4. **Multi-Tenant:** Enterprise-grade tenant isolation
5. **BLAKE3 Hashing:** Faster, more secure than SHA-256
6. **Sigstore Rekor Integration:** Transparency log support
7. **Native Binary Analysis:** PE/ELF/Mach-O identity extraction
---
## Remaining Gaps
| Gap | Priority | Mitigation | Timeline |
|-----|----------|------------|----------|
| CycloneDX 1.7 | P2 | Using 1.6, upgrade when SDK supports | Q1 2026 |
---
## Conclusion
StellaOps demonstrates **95% alignment** with the reference advisory architecture. The single gap (CycloneDX 1.6 vs 1.7) is a library dependency issue, not an architectural limitation. Once `CycloneDX.Core` exposes v1_7 support, a single-line code change completes the upgrade.
**Recommendation:** Proceed with production deployment on current 1.6 baseline; monitor CycloneDX.Core releases for 1.7 enum availability.
