GCVE: Global CVE Allocation System
The Global CVE (GCVE) allocation system is a new, decentralized approach to vulnerability identification and numbering, designed to improve flexibility, scalability, and autonomy for participating entities.
While remaining compatible with the traditional CVE system, GCVE introduces GCVE Numbering Authorities (GNAs). GNAs are independent entities that can allocate identifiers without relying on a centralised block distribution system or rigid policy enforcement.

Regularly updated Hugging Face datasets and models for software vulnerabilities

CIRCL is the CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team/Computer Security Incident Response Team) for the private sector, communes and non-governmental entities in Luxembourg.


LLMs + Vulnerability-Lookup: What We’re Testing and Where We’re Headed
Everyone’s talking about AI, NLP and LLMs these days, and, to be honest, so are we! Recently, we’ve been exploring how LLMs can help us make sense of the massive amount of vulnerability data we collect and improve vulnerability management—while always remembering that AI is just a tool, not a soluti...

This release of Vulnerability-Lookup includes new features, better monitoring, improvements and fixes.
What's New
Centralized monitoring service
This feature adds log and process heartbeat reporting to a Valkey datastore,
enabling centralized monitoring of Vulnerability-Lookup’s system health and its various components.
(#106)
This new feature is essential for monitoring our expanding suite of tools used to collect vulnerability-related information.


I will investigate this! Thank you!

Thank you very much!
Actually I cross-posted it because someone advised me to do this after I initially shared it on [email protected] . But next time I'll directly share on [email protected] ;-)

Thank you for the compliment!
And definitely, you should have a look at Pixelfed. The community is surprisingly active!
I cross-posted the post to [email protected] . Thanks for the tip!

We are glad to announce the immediate availability of vulnerability-related observations from The Shadowserver Foundation within Vulnerability-Lookup.
This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without Piotr Kijewski. We developed a new sighting client, ShadowSight. This new client gathers vulnerability-related data directly from The Shadowserver Foundation, then reports the collected data to the Vulnerability-Lookup API as sightings.
ShadowSight leverages insights on common vulnerabilities and exploited vulnerabilities from Shadowserver’s honeypot source. Source code of ShadowSight is available:
👉 https://github.com/CIRCL/ShadowSight

The Qualcomm DSP Driver - How Serbian authorities have deployed surveillance technology and digital repression tactics
Vulnerability-Lookup - Fast vulnerability lookup correlation from different sources.
Amnesty International identified how Serbian authorities used Cellebrite to exploit a zero-day vulnerability (a software flaw which is not known to the original software developer and for which a software fix is not available) in Android devices to gain privileged access to an environmental activist’s phone. The vulnerability, identified in collaboration with security researchers at Google Project Zero and Threat Analysis Group, affected millions of Android devices worldwide that use the popular Qualcomm chipsets. An update fixing the security issue was released in the October 2024 Qualcomm Security Bulletin.

Both endpoints provide the option to return results in a Markdown table format. (7a2b8ed, [d95b49c](https://github.com/cve-search/vulnerability-lookup/commit/d95b49c6c421cf34a281

Looking for Lemmy accounts about software vulnerabilities, CVEs, etc.
I am looking for active Lemmy accounts about software vulnerabilities, CVEs, etc. It could be specific to GHSA, CSAF, PySEC, GSD, Pypi or whatever.
I will use it in a software vulnerability lookup projects: https://github.com/cve-search/vulnerability-lookup/ in order to create Sightings about vulnerabilities.
(it's fine as well if you can provide me Mastodon accounts. I already follow CVE program)
thank you !

Vulnerability Lookup facilitates quick correlation of vulnerabilities from various sources (NIST, GitHub, CSAF-Siemens, CSAF-CISCO, CSAF-CERT-Bund, PySec, VARIoT, etc.), independent of vulnerability IDs, and streamlines the management of Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD). Vulnerability Lookup is also a collaborative platform where users can comment on security advisories and create bundles.
A Vulnerability Lookup instance operated by CIRCL is available at https://vulnerability.circl.lu/.
