FDA-NTIA-006 warning

Author of the SBOM data is present

Pack fda-524b 1.0.0

Severity
warning
An NTIA baseline attribute. The guidance frames these as 'should', and in practice a missing baseline attribute returns as a review deficiency or an eSTAR technical screening hold rather than a refusal, so it costs weeks rather than the filing.
Applies to
cyclonedx, spdx
Selector
{"cyclonedx":"$.metadata","spdx":"$.creationInfo"}
On an empty selector
fire
The selector names a specific object the assertion inspects. When that object is absent the information the rule exists to check was not supplied at all, which is a stronger failure than supplying it badly. Reporting nothing would make a missing section indistinguishable from a satisfied one.
Fix
Name the entity that generated the SBOM.

Note
NTIA 2021 BASELINE, not CISA 2026. FDA has not adopted the 2026 element set. SPDX carries creators as strings of the form 'Organization: X' or 'Tool: y-1.0', not as objects. The acronym and version checks in the CycloneDX branch are applied to the parsed suffix by the engine, not by this assert.
