It is a drop-in replacement of "cve-check". It uses the same variables from recipes to make the migration and backporting easier. The goal of this class is to allow generation of the CVE list of an image or distribution on-demand, including the latest information from vulnerability databases. Vulnerability data changes every day, so a status generated at build becomes out-of-date very soon. Research done for this work shows that the current VEX formats (CSAF and OpenVEX) do not provide enough information to generate such rolling information. Instead, we extract the needed data from recipe annotations (package names, CPEs, versions, CVE patches applied...) and store for later use in the format that is an extension of the CVE-check JSON output format. This output can be then used (separately or with SPDX of the same build) by an external tool to generate the vulnerability annotation and VEX statements in standard formats. When back-porting this feature, the do_generate_vex() had to be modified to use the "old" get_patched_cves() API.
