I ran the below command to run the dependency check under a proxy server.
./dependency-check.sh \
--scan test/sample.jar \
--project test_owasp \
--out test/output \
It gives me the following output:

It was not able to download the Metadata thru' proxy, eventhough I passed the below parameters with command.
--proxyserver sample.proxy.com \
--proxyport 1234
Could anyone help me on resolving this issue, please!!
By creating a Maven Project and adding owasp dependency check dependency code in pom.xml, I was able to run owasp dependency check along with the smooth download of resources (nvd-cve's). Before running add the jars to scan, in src/main/resources location.
pom.xml:
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>owasp</groupId>
<artifactId>dependency-check</artifactId>
<version>99.0.0.0.0</version>
<name>OWASP_Dependency_Check</name>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.owasp</groupId>
<artifactId>dependency-check-maven</artifactId>
<version>5.0.0</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>
Run the following command:
mvn clean install org.owasp:dependency-check-maven:check -DscanSet.fileSet=['src/main/resources/']
Regarding Proxy - I had to update proxy in two settings.xml.
1) .m2/settings.xml
2) apache-maven-3.6.3/conf/settings.xml
