snyk: Cannot use sbom subcommand: unknown command error

[muhmud]

Nixpkgs version

• Unstable (25.11)

Describe the bug

The latest versions of snyk support the sbom subcommand. When trying to run this command using the nix package, I get the following error:

$ snyk sbom                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            <<<
Unknown command "sbom"

Run `snyk --help` for a list of available commands.

However, running snyk --help clearly shows the sbom command as being available.

Digging a bit deeper into this, it seems like the nix package is now using what is considered to be the fallback CLI, with snyk npm installs now being a wrapper over a static/dynamically linked binary. Essentially, the nix package definition needs to be updated.

Steps to reproduce

• Use the snyk package
• Run snyk sbom

Expected behaviour

The snyk sbom command should not fail
