Publish Approval Attestation

JSON Schema for CyberBench publish-approval attestations in CycloneDX declarations format. Shape-only: approver-not-equal-author (comparison against the Publication's signing identity), the findings-enumerated re-check, and the timestamp sidecar join are verifier (adbom-cli) checks. Normative requirements: https://sec.hypermedia.au/standards/publish-approval/v1 Cross-document convention (ratified 2026-07-18): map.requirement cites the requirement's published URL (pattern-pinned, offline-checkable); claim.target is a BOM-Link to the L3 Publication version. These deliberately reference documents outside this BOM; resolution is via sec.hypermedia.au and BOM-Links.

What this attestation claims

It asserts one of these predicates:

approved-for-disclosure
disclosure-rejected
changes-requested

About: PAPP-002: BOM-Link to the L3 Publication version — matching ^urn:cdx:.+.

Reasoning: a written justification is required.

How it's scored

Each mapped requirement carries two independent 0.0–1.0 scores, each with a rationale: conformance (how fully the requirement is met) and confidence (how sure the assessor is of that judgement).

Signing & trust

Signed with ES256 / ES384 / ES512.

Keyless signing via a Fulcio certificate — the signer's identity is bound in the certificate path, so there's no long-lived key to manage.

Who may attest

Each attestation names an assessor described by:

bom-ref (required): a BOM reference identifying the assessor entry
thirdParty: whether the assessor is an independent third party
organization (required): the attesting organization (name + URL)
