Filter OSV reports by repository version so another index cannot show
vulns until it is scanned. Move the Warehouse trim helper out of
Django-backed utils so unit tests collect without loading apps.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds optional OSV scanning for synchronized Python repository versions and exposes converted vulnerability reports through the PyPI JSON API. It adds configuration, scan dispatch, report aggregation, serializers, migrations, documentation, and functional and unit tests.

Changes

Vulnerability data contract and conversion
CHANGES/1365.feature, pulp_python/app/migrations/0025_pythonremote_vulnerabilities.py, pulp_python/app/models.py, pulp_python/app/serializers.py, pulp_python/app/osv.py, pulp_python/app/pypi/serializers.py, pulp_python/tests/unit/test_vulnerabilities.py, docs/user/guides/vulnerability_report.md
Adds the remote scanning flag, converts OSV records to Warehouse-shaped vulnerability data, exposes the JSON field, and tests conversion behavior.
Repository-version scan orchestration

Centralizes scan dispatch and starts scans after synchronization when the remote enables vulnerability scanning. Manual scan behavior and report attachment are tested.
PyPI JSON API integration
pulp_python/app/models.py, pulp_python/app/utils.py, pulp_python/app/pypi/serializers.py, pulp_python/tests/functional/api/test_pypi_apis.py, pulp_python/tests/functional/api/test_pypi_json_vulnerabilities.py
Passes repository context into JSON generation, collects matching reports, and returns vulnerability arrays for package and version responses. Pre-scan and uploaded-package behavior are tested.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~30 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7724b

The PR adds vulnerability data to PyPI responses and opt-in vulnerability scanning. It is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up because GIT-based OSV ranges may be represented incorrectly as fixed versions, and one documentation block violates the repository’s markdown style checks.

Set `vulnerabilities` on the remote to scan the new repository version after each successful sync. The scan runs as a follow-up task and does not fail the sync if OSV is unreachable. Results are stored as vulnerability reports and exposed on the JSON API.

packaging.version.Version numeric 40 digit string PEP 440 valid OSV schema GIT range fixed commit hash

💡 Result:

A 40-character hexadecimal string—commonly representing a Git commit hash—is not a valid PEP 440 version string and will cause packaging.version.Version() to raise an InvalidVersion exception [1][2][3]. PEP 440 defines a strict structure for version identifiers (e.g., [N!]N(.N)*[{a|b|rc}N][.postN][.devN][+local]), which does not include support for raw Git commit hashes [2]. In the context of the Open Source Vulnerability (OSV) schema, the handling of commit hashes and version strings is distinct: 1. OSV Schema Ranges: For vulnerabilities tracked by commit, the OSV schema uses the GIT range type [4][5]. In this context, introduced and fixed events are specified as full-length Git commit hashes [4][5]. The OSV format is designed to map precisely to either package versions (using standard versioning schemes like PEP 440/SemVer) or commit hashes (for VCS-based tracking) [4][6][7]. 2. Separation of Concerns: The OSV schema keeps these identifiers separate. When describing affected packages, if you are providing a version string, it must conform to the package's ecosystem standard (e.g., PEP 440 for Python) [4][5]. If you are providing a commit hash to define a fix range, you must use the GIT range type, where the fixed event is explicitly a commit hash, not a version string [4][8]. In summary, you cannot use a 40-character Git hash as a PEP 440 version identifier in Python's packaging library [1][2], nor should you attempt to use it as a standard package version in an OSV entry; instead, place the commit hash within the GIT range block of the OSV schema [4][5].

site:packaging.pypa.io packaging.version.Version("1111111111111111111111111111111111111111") valid

💡 Result:

The version string "1111111111111111111111111111111111111111" is not a valid version according to the packaging.version.Version class [1][2]. The packaging.version.Version class validates version strings against the PEP 440 specification [1][3]. A valid PEP 440 version must generally follow a structure of release segments separated by dots (e.g., "1.0", "2026.8.31"), optionally followed by pre-release, post-release, or development release identifiers [1]. Because "1111111111111111111111111111111111111111" consists only of a single, very long integer without any version separators (dots), it does not conform to the expected format and will raise an InvalidVersion exception when passed to the Version constructor [1][2].

🌐 Web query:

PEP 440 release segment N(.N)* arbitrary number of digits single integer valid version

💡 Result:

Under PEP 440, the release segment is defined as N(.N), where N represents a non-negative integer [1][2]. The release segment consists of one or more non-negative integer values separated by dots [1][3]. While the notation N(.N) implies an arbitrary number of segments (or "dots" followed by integers), each individual component N must be a valid, non-negative integer [1]. There is no restriction on the number of digits an individual integer component may have, provided it remains a non-negative integer [1][4]. For example, 1, 1.2, 1.2.3, and 1.1000000000.5 are all valid release segments because each component is a non-negative integer [1][4]. Leading zeros are generally normalized away during parsing (e.g., 1.01 is treated as 1.1) [4]. In summary, the release segment is not a single integer, but a sequence of one or more non-negative integers separated by dots, where each integer can have an arbitrary number of digits [1][2].

Ignore GIT ranges when building fixed_in.

_osv_fixed_in passes every fixed event to packaging.version.Version. OSV GIT events contain commit hashes, and an all-decimal 40-character hash can parse as a valid PEP 440 version. Skip ranges with range_.get("type") == "GIT" and add a regression test.
