I upgraded to trivy-operator 0.17.1 and am currently seeing this error in the logs:

It seems the component (kibana) is too complex to store the SBOM in a secret and think this is a bug in trivy-operator.

@chen-keinan do we want to compress the SBOM in the secret? Might be a good solution that would temporarily allow for some scaling.
