# component_architecture_scanner.md — **Stella Ops Scanner** (2025Q4)
|
||
|
||
> Aligned with Epic 6 – Vulnerability Explorer and Epic 10 – Export Center.
|
||
|
||
> **Scope.** Implementation‑ready architecture for the **Scanner** subsystem: WebService, Workers, analyzers, SBOM assembly (inventory & usage), per‑layer caching, three‑way diffs, artifact catalog (RustFS default + Mongo, S3-compatible fallback), attestation hand‑off, and scale/security posture. This document is the contract between the scanning plane and everything else (Policy, Excititor, Concelier, UI, CLI).
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
## 0) Mission & boundaries
|
||
|
||
**Mission.** Produce **deterministic**, **explainable** SBOMs and diffs for container images and filesystems, quickly and repeatedly, without guessing. Emit two views: **Inventory** (everything present) and **Usage** (entrypoint closure + actually linked libs). Attach attestations through **Signer→Attestor→Rekor v2**.
|
||
|
||
**Boundaries.**
|
||
|
||
* Scanner **does not** produce PASS/FAIL. The backend (Policy + Excititor + Concelier) decides presentation and verdicts.
|
||
* Scanner **does not** keep third‑party SBOM warehouses. It may **bind** to existing attestations for exact hashes.
|
||
* Core analyzers are **deterministic** (no fuzzy identity). Optional heuristic plug‑ins (e.g., patch‑presence) run under explicit flags and never contaminate the core SBOM.

```
|
||
|
||
Analyzer assemblies and buildx generators are packaged as **restart-time plug-ins** under `plugins/scanner/**` with manifests; services must restart to activate new plug-ins.
|
||
|
||
### 1.2 Native reachability upgrades (Nov 2026)
|
||
|
||
- **Stripped-binary pipeline**: native analyzers must recover functions even without symbols (prolog patterns, xrefs, PLT/GOT, vtables). Emit a tool-agnostic neutral JSON (NJIF) with functions, CFG/CG, and evidence tags. Keep heuristics deterministic and record toolchain hashes in the scan manifest.
|
||
- **Synthetic roots**: treat `.preinit_array`, `.init_array`, legacy `.ctors`, and `_init` as graph entrypoints; add roots for constructors in each `DT_NEEDED` dependency. Tag edges from these roots with `phase=load` for explainers.
|
||
- **Build-id capture**: read `.note.gnu.build-id` for every ELF, store hex build-id alongside soname/path, propagate into `SymbolID`/`code_id`, and expose it to SBOM + runtime joiners. If missing, fall back to file hash and mark source accordingly.
|
||
- **PURL-resolved edges**: annotate call edges with the callee purl and `symbol_digest` so graphs merge with SBOM components. See `docs/reachability/purl-resolved-edges.md` for schema rules and acceptance tests.
|
||
- **Unknowns emission**: when symbol → purl mapping or edge targets remain unresolved, emit structured Unknowns to Signals (see `docs/signals/unknowns-registry.md`) instead of dropping evidence.
|
||
- **Hybrid attestation**: emit **graph-level DSSE** for every `richgraph-v1` (mandatory) and optional **edge-bundle DSSE** (≤512 edges) for runtime/init-root/contested edges or third-party provenance. Publish graph DSSE digests to Rekor by default; edge-bundle Rekor publish is policy-driven. CAS layout: `cas://reachability/graphs/{blake3}` for graph body, `.../{blake3}.dsse` for envelope, and `cas://reachability/edges/{graph_hash}/{bundle_id}[.dsse]` for bundles. Deterministic ordering before hashing/signing is required.
|
||
- **Deterministic call-graph manifest**: capture analyzer versions, feed hashes, toolchain digests, and flags in a manifest stored alongside `richgraph-v1`; replaying with the same manifest MUST yield identical node/edge sets and hashes (see `docs/reachability/lead.md`).
|
||
|
||
### 1.1 Queue backbone (Redis / NATS)
|
||
|
||
`StellaOps.Scanner.Queue` exposes a transport-agnostic contract (`IScanQueue`/`IScanQueueLease`) used by the WebService producer and Worker consumers. Sprint 9 introduces two first-party transports:
|
||
|
||
- **Redis Streams** (default). Uses consumer groups, deterministic idempotency keys (`scanner:jobs:idemp:*`), and supports lease claim (`XCLAIM`), renewal, exponential-backoff retries, and a `scanner:jobs:dead` stream for exhausted attempts.
|
||
- **NATS JetStream**. Provisions the `SCANNER_JOBS` work-queue stream + durable consumer `scanner-workers`, publishes with `MsgId` for dedupe, applies backoff via `NAK` delays, and routes dead-lettered jobs to `SCANNER_JOBS_DEAD`.
|
||
|
||
Metrics are emitted via `Meter` counters (`scanner_queue_enqueued_total`, `scanner_queue_retry_total`, `scanner_queue_deadletter_total`), and `ScannerQueueHealthCheck` pings the active backend (Redis `PING`, NATS `PING`). Configuration is bound from `scanner.queue`:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
scanner:
|
||
queue:
|
||
kind: redis # or nats
|
||
redis:
|
||
connectionString: "redis://queue:6379/0"
|
||
streamName: "scanner:jobs"
|
||
nats:
|
||
url: "nats://queue:4222"
|
||
stream: "SCANNER_JOBS"
|
||
subject: "scanner.jobs"
|
||
durableConsumer: "scanner-workers"
|
||
deadLetterSubject: "scanner.jobs.dead"
|
||
maxDeliveryAttempts: 5
|
||
retryInitialBackoff: 00:00:05
|
||
retryMaxBackoff: 00:02:00
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The DI extension (`AddScannerQueue`) wires the selected transport, so future additions (e.g., RabbitMQ) only implement the same contract and register.
|
||
|
||
**Runtime form‑factor:** two deployables
|
||
|
||
* **Scanner.WebService** (stateless REST)
|
||
* **Scanner.Worker** (N replicas; queue‑driven)
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 2) External dependencies
|
||
|
||
* **OCI registry** with **Referrers API** (discover attached SBOMs/signatures).
|
||
* **RustFS** (default, offline-first) for SBOM artifacts; optional S3/MinIO compatibility retained for migration; **Object Lock** semantics emulated via retention headers; **ILM** for TTL.
|
||
* **MongoDB** for catalog, job state, diffs, ILM rules.
|
||
* **Queue** (Redis Streams/NATS/RabbitMQ).
|
||
* **Authority** (on‑prem OIDC) for **OpToks** (DPoP/mTLS).
|
||
* **Signer** + **Attestor** (+ **Fulcio/KMS** + **Rekor v2**) for DSSE + transparency.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 3) Contracts & data model
|
||
|
||
### 3.1 Evidence‑first component model
|
||
|
||
**Nodes**
|
||
|
||
* `Image`, `Layer`, `File`
|
||
* `Component` (`purl?`, `name`, `version?`, `type`, `id` — may be `bin:{sha256}`)
|
||
* `Executable` (ELF/PE/Mach‑O), `Library` (native or managed), `EntryScript` (shell/launcher)
|
||
|
||
**Edges** (all carry **Evidence**)
|
||
|
||
* `contains(Image|Layer → File)`
|
||
* `installs(PackageDB → Component)` (OS database row)
|
||
* `declares(InstalledMetadata → Component)` (dist‑info, pom.properties, deps.json…)
|
||
* `links_to(Executable → Library)` (ELF `DT_NEEDED`, PE imports)
|
||
* `calls(EntryScript → Program)` (file:line from shell AST)
|
||
* `attests(Rekor → Component|Image)` (SBOM/predicate binding)
|
||
* `bound_from_attestation(Component_attested → Component_observed)` (hash equality proof)
|
||
|
||
**Evidence**
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
{ source: enum, locator: (path|offset|line), sha256?, method: enum, timestamp }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
No confidences. Either a fact is proven with listed mechanisms, or it is not claimed.
|
||
|
||
### 3.2 Catalog schema (Mongo)
|
||
|
||
* `artifacts`
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
{ _id, type: layer-bom|image-bom|diff|index,
|
||
format: cdx-json|cdx-pb|spdx-json,
|
||
bytesSha256, size, rekor: { uuid,index,url }?,
|
||
ttlClass, immutable, refCount, createdAt }
|
||
```
|
||
* `images { imageDigest, repo, tag?, arch, createdAt, lastSeen }`
|
||
* `layers { layerDigest, mediaType, size, createdAt, lastSeen }`
|
||
* `links { fromType, fromDigest, artifactId }` // image/layer -> artifact
|
||
* `jobs { _id, kind, args, state, startedAt, heartbeatAt, endedAt, error }`
|
||
* `lifecycleRules { ruleId, scope, ttlDays, retainIfReferenced, immutable }`
|
||
* `ruby.packages { _id: scanId, imageDigest, generatedAtUtc, packages[] }` // decoded `RubyPackageInventory` documents for CLI/Policy reuse
|
||
|
||
### 3.3 Object store layout (RustFS)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
layers/<sha256>/sbom.cdx.json.zst
|
||
layers/<sha256>/sbom.spdx.json.zst
|
||
images/<imgDigest>/inventory.cdx.pb # CycloneDX Protobuf
|
||
images/<imgDigest>/usage.cdx.pb
|
||
indexes/<imgDigest>/bom-index.bin # purls + roaring bitmaps
|
||
diffs/<old>_<new>/diff.json.zst
|
||
attest/<artifactSha256>.dsse.json # DSSE bundle (cert chain + Rekor proof)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RustFS exposes a deterministic HTTP API (`PUT|GET|DELETE /api/v1/buckets/{bucket}/objects/{key}`).
|
||
Scanner clients tag immutable uploads with `X-RustFS-Immutable: true` and, when retention applies,
|
||
`X-RustFS-Retain-Seconds: <ttlSeconds>`. Additional headers can be injected via
|
||
`scanner.artifactStore.headers` to support custom auth or proxy requirements. Legacy MinIO/S3
|
||
deployments remain supported by setting `scanner.artifactStore.driver = "s3"` during phased
|
||
migrations.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 4) REST API (Scanner.WebService)
|
||
|
||
All under `/api/v1/scanner`. Auth: **OpTok** (DPoP/mTLS); RBAC scopes.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
POST /scans { imageRef|digest, force?:bool } → { scanId }
|
||
GET /scans/{id} → { status, imageDigest, artifacts[], rekor? }
|
||
GET /sboms/{imageDigest} ?format=cdx-json|cdx-pb|spdx-json&view=inventory|usage → bytes
|
||
GET /scans/{id}/ruby-packages → { scanId, imageDigest, generatedAt, packages[] }
|
||
GET /diff?old=<digest>&new=<digest>&view=inventory|usage → diff.json
|
||
POST /exports { imageDigest, format, view, attest?:bool } → { artifactId, rekor? }
|
||
POST /reports { imageDigest, policyRevision? } → { reportId, rekor? } # delegates to backend policy+vex
|
||
GET /catalog/artifacts/{id} → { meta }
|
||
GET /healthz | /readyz | /metrics
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Report events
|
||
|
||
When `scanner.events.enabled = true`, the WebService serialises the signed report (canonical JSON + DSSE envelope) with `NotifyCanonicalJsonSerializer` and publishes two Redis Stream entries (`scanner.report.ready`, `scanner.scan.completed`) to the configured stream (default `stella.events`). The stream fields carry the whole envelope plus lightweight headers (`kind`, `tenant`, `ts`) so Notify and UI timelines can consume the event bus without recomputing signatures. Publish timeouts and bounded stream length are controlled via `scanner:events:publishTimeoutSeconds` and `scanner:events:maxStreamLength`. If the queue driver is already Redis and no explicit events DSN is provided, the host reuses the queue connection and auto-enables event emission so deployments get live envelopes without extra wiring. Compose/Helm bundles expose the same knobs via the `SCANNER__EVENTS__*` environment variables for quick tuning.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 5) Execution flow (Worker)
|
||
|
||
### 5.1 Acquire & verify
|
||
|
||
1. **Resolve image** (prefer `repo@sha256:…`).
|
||
2. **(Optional) verify image signature** per policy (cosign).
|
||
3. **Pull blobs**, compute layer digests; record metadata.
|
||
|
||
### 5.2 Layer union FS
|
||
|
||
* Apply whiteouts; materialize final filesystem; map **file → first introducing layer**.
|
||
* Windows layers (MSI/SxS/GAC) planned in **M2**.
|
||
|
||
### 5.3 Evidence harvest (parallel analyzers; deterministic only)
|
||
|
||
**A) OS packages**
|
||
|
||
* **apk**: `/lib/apk/db/installed`
|
||
* **dpkg**: `/var/lib/dpkg/status`, `/var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list`
|
||
* **rpm**: `/var/lib/rpm/Packages` (via librpm or parser)
|
||
* Record `name`, `version` (epoch/revision), `arch`, source package where present, and **declared file lists**.
|
||
|
||
> **Data flow note:** Each OS analyzer now writes its canonical output into the shared `ScanAnalysisStore` under
|
||
> `analysis.os.packages` (raw results), `analysis.os.fragments` (per-analyzer layer fragments), and contributes to
|
||
> `analysis.layers.fragments` (the aggregated view consumed by emit/diff pipelines). Helpers in
|
||
> `ScanAnalysisCompositionBuilder` convert these fragments into SBOM composition requests and component graphs so the
|
||
> diff/emit stages no longer reach back into individual analyzer implementations.
|
||
|
||
**B) Language ecosystems (installed state only)**
|
||
|
||
* **Java**: `META-INF/maven/*/pom.properties`, MANIFEST → `pkg:maven/...`
|
||
* **Node**: `node_modules/**/package.json` → `pkg:npm/...`
|
||
* **Python**: `*.dist-info/{METADATA,RECORD}` → `pkg:pypi/...`
|
||
* **Go**: Go **buildinfo** in binaries → `pkg:golang/...`
|
||
* **.NET**: `*.deps.json` + assembly metadata → `pkg:nuget/...`
|
||
* **Rust**: crates only when **explicitly present** (embedded metadata or cargo/registry traces); otherwise binaries reported as `bin:{sha256}`.
|
||
|
||
> **Rule:** We only report components proven **on disk** with authoritative metadata. Lockfiles are evidence only.
|
||
|
||
**C) Native link graph**
|
||
|
||
* **ELF**: parse `PT_INTERP`, `DT_NEEDED`, RPATH/RUNPATH, **GNU symbol versions**; map **SONAMEs** to file paths; link executables → libs.
|
||
* **PE/Mach‑O** (planned M2): import table, delay‑imports; version resources; code signatures.
|
||
* Map libs back to **OS packages** if possible (via file lists); else emit `bin:{sha256}` components.
|
||
* The exported metadata (`stellaops.os.*` properties, license list, source package) feeds policy scoring and export pipelines
|
||
directly – Policy evaluates quiet rules against package provenance while Exporters forward the enriched fields into
|
||
downstream JSON/Trivy payloads.
|
||
* **Reachability lattice**: analyzers + runtime probes emit `Evidence`/`Mitigation` records (see `docs/reachability/lattice.md`). The lattice engine joins static path evidence, runtime hits (EventPipe/JFR), taint flows, environment gates, and mitigations into `ReachDecision` documents that feed VEX gating and event graph storage.
|
||
* Sprint 401 introduces `StellaOps.Scanner.Symbols.Native` (DWARF/PDB reader + demangler) and `StellaOps.Scanner.CallGraph.Native`
|
||
(function boundary detector + call-edge builder). These libraries feed `FuncNode`/`CallEdge` CAS bundles and enrich reachability
|
||
graphs with `{code_id, confidence, evidence}` so Signals/Policy/UI can cite function-level justifications.
|
||
|
||
**D) EntryTrace (ENTRYPOINT/CMD → terminal program)**
|
||
|
||
* Read image config; parse shell (POSIX/Bash subset) with AST: `source`/`.` includes; `case/if`; `exec`/`command`; `run‑parts`.
|
||
* Resolve commands via **PATH** within the **built rootfs**; follow language launchers (Java/Node/Python) to identify the terminal program (ELF/JAR/venv script).
|
||
* Record **file:line** and choices for each hop; output chain graph.
|
||
* Unresolvable dynamic constructs are recorded as **unknown** edges with reasons (e.g., `$FOO` unresolved).
|
||
|
||
**E) Attestation & SBOM bind (optional)**
|
||
|
||
* For each **file hash** or **binary hash**, query local cache of **Rekor v2** indices; if an SBOM attestation is found for **exact hash**, bind it to the component (origin=`attested`).
|
||
* For the **image** digest, likewise bind SBOM attestations (build‑time referrers).
|
||
|
||
### 5.4 Component normalization (exact only)
|
||
|
||
* Create `Component` nodes only with deterministic identities: purl, or **`bin:{sha256}`** for unlabeled binaries.
|
||
* Record **origin** (OS DB, installed metadata, linker, attestation).
|
||
|
||
### 5.5 SBOM assembly & emit
|
||
|
||
* **Per-layer SBOM fragments**: components introduced by the layer (+ relationships).
|
||
* **Image SBOMs**: merge fragments; refer back to them via **CycloneDX BOM‑Link** (or SPDX ExternalRef).
|
||
* Emit both **Inventory** & **Usage** views.
|
||
* When the native analyzer reports an ELF `buildId`, attach it to component metadata and surface it as `stellaops:buildId` in CycloneDX properties (and diff metadata). This keeps SBOM/diff output in lockstep with runtime events and the debug-store manifest.
|
||
* Serialize **CycloneDX JSON** and **CycloneDX Protobuf**; optionally **SPDX 3.0.1 JSON**.
|
||
* Build **BOM‑Index** sidecar: purl table + roaring bitmap; flag `usedByEntrypoint` components for fast backend joins.
|
||
|
||
The emitted `buildId` metadata is preserved in component hashes, diff payloads, and `/policy/runtime` responses so operators can pivot from SBOM entries → runtime events → `debug/.build-id/<aa>/<rest>.debug` within the Offline Kit or release bundle.
|
||
|
||
### 5.6 DSSE attestation (via Signer/Attestor)
|
||
|
||
* WebService constructs **predicate** with `image_digest`, `stellaops_version`, `license_id`, `policy_digest?` (when emitting **final reports**), timestamps.
|
||
* Calls **Signer** (requires **OpTok + PoE**); Signer verifies **entitlement + scanner image integrity** and returns **DSSE bundle**.
|
||
* **Attestor** logs to **Rekor v2**; returns `{uuid,index,proof}` → stored in `artifacts.rekor`.
|
||
* Operator enablement runbooks (toggles, env-var map, rollout guidance) live in [`operations/dsse-rekor-operator-guide.md`](operations/dsse-rekor-operator-guide.md) per SCANNER-ENG-0015.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 6) Three‑way diff (image → layer → component)
|
||
|
||
### 6.1 Keys & classification
|
||
|
||
* Component key: **purl** when present; else `bin:{sha256}`.
|
||
* Diff classes: `added`, `removed`, `version_changed` (`upgraded|downgraded`), `metadata_changed` (e.g., origin from attestation vs observed).
|
||
* Layer attribution: for each change, resolve the **introducing/removing layer**.
|
||
|
||
### 6.2 Algorithm (outline)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
A = components(imageOld, key)
|
||
B = components(imageNew, key)
|
||
|
||
added = B \ A
|
||
removed = A \ B
|
||
changed = { k in A∩B : version(A[k]) != version(B[k]) || origin changed }
|
||
|
||
for each item in added/removed/changed:
|
||
layer = attribute_to_layer(item, imageOld|imageNew)
|
||
usageFlag = usedByEntrypoint(item, imageNew)
|
||
emit diff.json (grouped by layer with badges)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Diffs are stored as artifacts and feed **UI** and **CLI**.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 7) Build‑time SBOMs (fast CI path)
|
||
|
||
**Scanner.Sbomer.BuildXPlugin** can act as a BuildKit **generator**:
|
||
|
||
* During `docker buildx build --attest=type=sbom,generator=stellaops/sbom-indexer`, run analyzers on the build context/output; attach SBOMs as OCI **referrers** to the built image.
|
||
* Optionally request **Signer/Attestor** to produce **Stella Ops‑verified** attestation immediately; else, Scanner.WebService can verify and re‑attest post‑push.
|
||
* Scanner.WebService trusts build‑time SBOMs per policy, enabling **no‑rescan** for unchanged bases.
|
||

## 8) Configuration (YAML)
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 9) Scale & performance
|
||
|
||
* **Parallelism**: per‑analyzer concurrency; bounded directory walkers; file CAS dedupe by sha256.
|
||
* **Distributed locks** per **layer digest** to prevent duplicate work across Workers.
|
||
* **Registry throttles**: per‑host concurrency budgets; exponential backoff on 429/5xx.
|
||
* **Targets**:
|
||
|
||
* **Build‑time**: P95 ≤ 3–5 s on warmed bases (CI generator).
|
||
* **Post‑build delta**: P95 ≤ 10 s for 200 MB images with cache hit.
|
||
* **Emit**: CycloneDX Protobuf ≤ 150 ms for 5k components; JSON ≤ 500 ms.
|
||
* **Diff**: ≤ 200 ms for 5k vs 5k components.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 10) Security posture
|
||
|
||
* **AuthN**: Authority‑issued short OpToks (DPoP/mTLS).
|
||
* **AuthZ**: scopes (`scanner.scan`, `scanner.export`, `scanner.catalog.read`).
|
||
* **mTLS** to **Signer**/**Attestor**; only **Signer** can sign.
|
||
* **No network fetches** during analysis (except registry pulls and optional Rekor index reads).
|
||
* **Sandboxing**: non‑root containers; read‑only FS; seccomp profiles; disable execution of scanned content.
|
||
* **Release integrity**: all first‑party images are **cosign‑signed**; Workers/WebService self‑verify at startup.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 11) Observability & audit
|
||
|
||
* **Metrics**:
|
||
|
||
* `scanner.jobs_inflight`, `scanner.scan_latency_seconds`
|
||
* `scanner.layer_cache_hits_total`, `scanner.file_cas_hits_total`
|
||
* `scanner.artifact_bytes_total{format}`
|
||
* `scanner.attestation_latency_seconds`, `scanner.rekor_failures_total`
|
||
* `scanner_analyzer_golang_heuristic_total{indicator,version_hint}` — increments whenever the Go analyzer falls back to heuristics (build-id or runtime markers). Grafana panel: `sum by (indicator) (rate(scanner_analyzer_golang_heuristic_total[5m]))`; alert when the rate is ≥ 1 for 15 minutes to highlight unexpected stripped binaries.
|
||
* **Tracing**: spans for acquire→union→analyzers→compose→emit→sign→log.
|
||
* **Audit logs**: DSSE requests log `license_id`, `image_digest`, `artifactSha256`, `policy_digest?`, Rekor UUID on success.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 12) Testing matrix
|
||
|
||
* **Determinism:** given same image + analyzers → byte‑identical **CDX Protobuf**; JSON normalized.
|
||
* **OS packages:** ground‑truth images per distro; compare to package DB.
|
||
* **Lang ecosystems:** sample images per ecosystem (Java/Node/Python/Go/.NET/Rust) with installed metadata; negative tests w/ lockfile‑only.
|
||
* **Native & EntryTrace:** ELF graph correctness; shell AST cases (includes, run‑parts, exec, case/if).
|
||
* **Diff:** layer attribution against synthetic two‑image sequences.
|
||
* **Performance:** cold vs warm cache; large `node_modules` and `site‑packages`.
|
||
* **Security:** ensure no code execution from image; fuzz parser inputs; path traversal resistance on layer extract.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 13) Failure modes & degradations
|
||
|
||
* **Missing OS DB** (files exist, DB removed): record **files**; do **not** fabricate package components; emit `bin:{sha256}` where unavoidable; flag in evidence.
|
||
* **Unreadable metadata** (corrupt dist‑info): record file evidence; skip component creation; annotate.
|
||
* **Dynamic shell constructs**: mark unresolved edges with reasons (env var unknown) and continue; **Usage** view may be partial.
|
||
* **Registry rate limits**: honor backoff; queue job retries with jitter.
|
||
* **Signer refusal** (license/plan/version): scan completes; artifact produced; **no attestation**; WebService marks result as **unverified**.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 14) Optional plug‑ins (off by default)
|
||
|
||
* **Patch‑presence detector** (signature‑based backport checks). Reads curated function‑level signatures from advisories; inspects binaries for patched code snippets to lower false‑positives for backported fixes. Runs as a sidecar analyzer that **annotates** components; never overrides core identities.
|
||
* **Runtime probes** (with Zastava): when allowed, compare **/proc/<pid>/maps** (DSOs actually loaded) with static **Usage** view for precision.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 15) DevOps & operations
|
||
|
||
* **HA**: WebService horizontal scale; Workers autoscale by queue depth & CPU; distributed locks on layers.
|
||
* **Retention**: ILM rules per artifact class (`short`, `default`, `compliance`); **Object Lock** for compliance artifacts (reports, signed SBOMs).
|
||
* **Upgrades**: bump **cache schema** when analyzer outputs change; WebService triggers refresh of dependent artifacts.
|
||
* **Backups**: Mongo (daily dumps); RustFS snapshots (filesystem-level rsync/ZFS) or S3 versioning when legacy driver enabled; Rekor v2 DB snapshots.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 16) CLI & UI touch points
|
||
|
||
* **CLI**: `stellaops scan <ref>`, `stellaops diff --old --new`, `stellaops export`, `stellaops verify attestation <bundle|url>`.
|
||
* **UI**: Scan detail shows **Inventory/Usage** toggles, **Diff by Layer**, **Attestation badge** (verified/unverified), Rekor link, and **EntryTrace** chain with file:line breadcrumbs.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 17) Roadmap (Scanner)
|
||
|
||
* **M2**: Windows containers (MSI/SxS/GAC analyzers), PE/Mach‑O native analyzer, deeper Rust metadata.
|
||
* **M2**: Buildx generator GA (certified external registries), cross‑registry trust policies.
|
||
* **M3**: Patch‑presence plug‑in GA (opt‑in), cross‑image corpus clustering (evidence‑only; not identity).
|
||
* **M3**: Advanced EntryTrace (POSIX shell features breadth, busybox detection).

### Appendix A — EntryTrace resolution (pseudo)
|
||
|
||
```csharp
|
||
ResolveEntrypoint(ImageConfig cfg, RootFs fs):
|
||
cmd = Normalize(cfg.ENTRYPOINT, cfg.CMD)
|
||
stack = [ Script(cmd, path=FindOnPath(cmd[0], fs)) ]
|
||
visited = set()
|
||
|
||
while stack not empty and depth < MAX:
|
||
cur = stack.pop()
|
||
if cur in visited: continue
|
||
visited.add(cur)
|
||
|
||
if IsShellScript(cur.path):
|
||
ast = ParseShell(cur.path)
|
||
foreach directive in ast:
|
||
if directive is Source include:
|
||
p = ResolveInclude(include.path, cur.env, fs)
|
||
stack.push(Script(p))
|
||
if directive is Exec call:
|
||
p = ResolveExec(call.argv[0], cur.env, fs)
|
||
stack.push(Program(p, argv=call.argv))
|
||
if directive is Interpreter (python -m / node / java -jar):
|
||
term = ResolveInterpreterTarget(call, fs)
|
||
stack.push(Program(term))
|
||
else:
|
||
return Terminal(cur.path)
|
||
|
||
return Unknown(reason)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Appendix A.1 — EntryTrace Explainability
|
||
|
||
### Appendix A.0 — Replay / Record mode
|
||
|
||
- WebService ships a **RecordModeService** that assembles replay manifests (schema v1) with policy/feed/tool pins and reachability references, then writes deterministic input/output bundles to the configured object store (RustFS default, S3/Minio fallback) under `replay/<head>/<digest>.tar.zst`.
|
||
- Bundles contain canonical manifest JSON plus inputs (policy/feed/tool/analyzer digests) and outputs (SBOM, findings, optional VEX/logs); CAS URIs follow `cas://replay/...` and are attached to scan snapshots as `ReplayArtifacts`.
|
||
- Reachability graphs/traces are folded into the manifest via `ReachabilityReplayWriter`; manifests and bundles hash with stable ordering for replay verification (`docs/replay/DETERMINISTIC_REPLAY.md`).
|
||
- Worker sealed-mode intake reads `replay.bundle.uri` + `replay.bundle.sha256` (plus determinism feed/policy pins) from job metadata, persists bundle refs in analysis and surface manifest, and validates hashes before use.
|
||
- Deterministic execution switches (`docs/modules/scanner/deterministic-execution.md`) must be enabled when generating replay bundles to keep hashes stable.
|
||
|
||
EntryTrace emits structured diagnostics and metrics so operators can quickly understand why resolution succeeded or degraded:
|
||
|
||
| Reason | Description | Typical Mitigation |
|
||
|--------|-------------|--------------------|
|
||
| `CommandNotFound` | A command referenced in the script cannot be located in the layered root filesystem or `PATH`. | Ensure binaries exist in the image or extend `PATH` hints. |
|
||
| `MissingFile` | `source`/`.`/`run-parts` targets are missing. | Bundle the script or guard the include. |
|
||
| `DynamicEnvironmentReference` | Path depends on `$VARS` that are unknown at scan time. | Provide defaults via scan metadata or accept partial usage. |
|
||
| `RecursionLimitReached` | Nested includes exceeded the analyzer depth limit (default 64). | Flatten indirection or increase the limit in options. |
|
||
| `RunPartsEmpty` | `run-parts` directory contained no executable entries. | Remove empty directories or ignore if intentional. |
|
||
| `JarNotFound` / `ModuleNotFound` | Java/Python targets missing, preventing interpreter tracing. | Ship the jar/module with the image or adjust the launcher. |
|
||
|
||
Diagnostics drive two metrics published by `EntryTraceMetrics`:
|
||
|
||
- `entrytrace_resolutions_total{outcome}` — resolution attempts segmented by outcome (`resolved`, `partiallyresolved`, `unresolved`).
|
||
- `entrytrace_unresolved_total{reason}` — diagnostic counts keyed by reason.
|
||
|
||
Structured logs include `entrytrace.path`, `entrytrace.command`, `entrytrace.reason`, and `entrytrace.depth`, all correlated with scan/job IDs. Timestamps are normalized to UTC (microsecond precision) to keep DSSE attestations and UI traces explainable.
