Checklist

• Run trivy clean --all
• Read the troubleshooting

[simar7]

Scanning / will include a lot of files. From the logs it seems that you've probably hit a large file or a file that was unavailable for reading.

[knqyf263]

This is a timeout.
https://trivy.dev/latest/docs/references/troubleshooting/#timeout

You can increase the timeout value, and if you can identify large files, you can also exclude them from the scan using options like --skip-files or --skip-dirs.

Please feel free to reopen it if it doesn't help.
