Bomber is not finding packages in a SBOM file that has been converted using the CycloneDX Convert function

[6mile]

The problem I am having is that bomber does NOT find any packages in a SBOM that has been converted by the cyclonedx-node covert process. The SBOM is generated from a javascript application.

To recreate for testing:
Create a CycloneDX SBOM in JSON format:
cyclonedx-node --output bomber-test.json

If we scan that SBOM with Bomber, it works:

Now convert that CycloneDX SBOM to SPDX using the cyclonedx convert function:
cat ./bomber-test.json | cyclonedx convert --input-format json --output-format spdxjson > ./converted-to-spdx.json

Now that you have a freshly converted SPDX format SBOM, run Bomber against it:
bomber scan ./converted-to-spdx.json

Unfortunately, Bomber doesn't find any packages even thought there are many components listed in the converted SBOM:

I'm attaching all files here so you can inspect them.

Appreciate you attaching the files! We'll take a look.

@mirxcle have you taken a look yet?

Just touching this issue again. @mirxcle note that this is an SPDX file. I'd bet the schema isn't compatible with Bomber so we'll have to see if there's a half decent SPDX go module we can use rather than have to roll our own.
