Description

Describe the bug

I'm actually not sure if it's a schema issue but it looks fine. If I'm mistaken, sorry!

It seems the language server doesn't properly support string enum arrays.

I'm using the following schema: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aquasecurity/trivy/main/schema/trivy-config.json

This fragment is relevant:

    "severity": {
      "items": {
        "type": "string"
      },
      "type": "array",
      "enum": [
        "UNKNOWN",
        "LOW",
        "MEDIUM",
        "HIGH",
        "CRITICAL"
      ],
      "description": "severities of security issues to be displayed"
    },

When I use the following fragment in my yaml:

# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aquasecurity/trivy/main/schema/trivy-config.json
severity:
  - MEDIUM

Expected Behavior

No errors happen, since MEDIUM is value in the enum.

Current Behavior

I see the following error: Value is not accepted. Valid values: "UNKNOWN", "LOW", "MEDIUM", "HIGH", "CRITICAL".

Quoting "MEDIUM" or using alternative YAML array syntaxes doesn't work either.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Paste my example YAML into a new file.
  2. Observe the issue.

Research direction

Reproduce the diagnostic with the Trivy schema URL and the YAML fragment from the report, then trace the language server's enum validation for arrays. Done means the MEDIUM array value produces no error, with coverage for the reported schema pattern.
