panic: runtime error: index out of range [0] with length 0

[nba1992]

What happened:
panic: runtime error: index out of range [0] with length 0 when dealing with files without extension.

What you expected to happen:
Support when file has no extension?

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
On Windows, execute it , guaranteeing that inside a folder, there is a file without an extension.

Anything else we need to know?:
As mentioned in anchore/syft#1024, I tried to use the exclude as a workaround but didn't work.

closing this duplicate since it seems to be an indexing issue on syft which grype imports

After changing the $env:GRYPE_LOG_LEVEL = "debug", i found what was happening, and it seems that for syft for windows does not support files without extension.
I deleted the problematic files/folder, and it finish with success.
