Clair vs YunoHost
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Clair and YunoHost — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Clair vs YunoHost: at a glance
What is Clair?
Clair 4.10 RC can read SBOMs to match Java vulnerabilities.
Clair cut its first 4.10.0 release candidate on November 13, eleven months after 4.9.0. Its Java indexers can now read CycloneDX SBOM files and treat them as the source of truth, and Red Hat's VEX data now covers Maven advisories, so Java packages in Red Hat images can be matched. It also reduces memory use when many packages share a source package.
What is YunoHost?
YunoHost 13.0.10 continues the 13.0 point releases, with notes left to Debian.
YunoHost is a self-hosting distribution built on Debian. Its feed lists point releases on two lines, 12.1.x and 13.0.x; 13.0.10 arrived on November 13, about three weeks after 13.0.9. Every entry says only to refer to the Debian changelog, so the feed carries no detail on what changed.

Clair 4.10 RC can read SBOMs to match Java vulnerabilities.
◆ Current state
Clair cut its first 4.10.0 release candidate on November 13, eleven months after 4.9.0. Its Java indexers can now read CycloneDX SBOM files and treat them as the source of truth, and Red Hat's VEX data now covers Maven advisories, so Java packages in Red Hat images can be matched. It also reduces memory use when many packages share a source package.
◆ Where it's heading
Since 4.8 Clair has moved from Red Hat's older OVAL data to VEX, and each release follows Red Hat's security data more closely. 4.10 adds SBOMs as an input, so Clair can match what an image's own manifest declares, not only what it finds on disk.
◆ Prediction
More 4.10 release candidates and then a final are likely; the long gap between releases suggests that could take weeks.
YunoHost
5.0INFRA · APIS
YunoHost 13.0.10 continues the 13.0 point releases, with notes left to Debian.
◆ Current state
YunoHost is a self-hosting distribution built on Debian. Its feed lists point releases on two lines, 12.1.x and 13.0.x; 13.0.10 arrived on November 13, about three weeks after 13.0.9. Every entry says only to refer to the Debian changelog, so the feed carries no detail on what changed.
◆ Where it's heading
The 13.0 line gets a point release every few weeks while 12.1 receives occasional hotfixes. Without notes, the feed shows cadence but not content.
◆ Prediction
Expect another 13.0 point release within a month; the entries give no sign of a 13.1 or of 12.1 ending.
