Since it is not easily possible to examine an ISO from Java, how to leverage OS capabilities.

We need to add warnings to this around binaries (i.e. C/C++). This tool does not scan SO files, non-.NET DLL and EXE, and other binary formats. OWASP dependency-check will be able to scan file types listed in https://jeremylong.github.io/DependencyCheck/analyzers/index.html. As the documentation is written now it sounds like we could find any dependency/library on the system that is vulnerable and that isn't true.

In addition, we should consider expanding the list of file type analyzers to indicate file extensions to make this more clear.

All good points. I will work on adding the clarifications.

… file type analyzers page with details. Re-ordered side menu alphabetically to match.

I added a statement referring to the analyzers page, and made the analyzers page much more descriptive, utilizing a 3-column table. I also made the side menu of analyzers alphabetical to match the page.
