Summary
The 2023 State of Open Source Security Report by Snyk highlights the progress made in supply chain security, AI, and other areas, but also reveals challenges and concerns such as false positives, slow adoption of security tools, and a lack of standardization in software bill of materials (SBOMs). Despite these issues, the report shows an improvement in time to fix vulnerabilities across major open source ecosystems, suggesting that efforts are moving in the right direction. However, the report also notes that there is still much work to be done to fully realize the vision of proactively shifting left with security tooling and to effectively leverage SBOMs to reduce open source risk.
