When a dangerous flaw is discovered in one tiny software component, how can a company find every product that contains it?

Follow a security alert through a smart-doorbell company to understand direct and hidden dependencies, vulnerability matching, SPDX, CycloneDX, VEX—and why an ingredient list is useful without being a security certificate.
