CVE Checker 0.5

Posted Sep 3, 2010

Authored by Sven Vermeulen | Site cvechecker.sourceforge.net

cvechecker reports about possible vulnerabilities on your system by scanning the installed software and matching the results with the CVE database. This is not a bullet-proof method and you will most likely have many false positives, but it is still better than nothing, especially if you are running a distribution with little security coverage.

Changes: The tool should now build properly on NetBSD and FreeBSD (although more user experience here is still welcome). This release introduces a cvereport command (example output can be found at the project site), and has lowered its initial dependency requirements. pullcves now only loads the CVE XML changes in the database, rather than iterating across all CVE XML entries.
