Volunteer security flaw database goes live
A group of security volunteers has launched a database of software vulnerabilities, the "largest, most complete and most freely available" of its kind on the Internet, according to eWeek. The Open Source Vulnerability Database, or OSVDB, is intended "to help spread the security message as far and as wide as possible".
The name, the report is quick to point out, is not intended to imply that the database only categorizes open-source software, but describes the manner in which the database is run, under an open-source license. According to the group's founder, "the project so far has cataloged nearly 1,900 vulnerabilities, with another 2,700 or so submissions waiting to be confirmed, categorized and edited."
