Open Source Vulnerability Database
Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB) is an independent and open source database created by and for the community. The goal of the project is to provide accurate, detailed, current, and unbiased technical information on security vulnerabilities. The project promotes greater, open collaboration between companies and individuals, eliminates redundant works, and reduce expenses inherent with the development and maintenance of in-house vulnerability databases.
Its goal is to provide accurate, unbiased information about security vulnerabilities in computerized equipment. The core of OSVDB is a relational database which ties various information about security vulnerabilities into a common, cross-referenced open security data source.

“... for the poor the whole world is a self-constituted critic; your smallest action is open to debate.”
—Alice Foote MacDougall, U.S. businesswoman. (1867-1945)
“There often seems to be a playfulness to wise people, as if either their equanimity has as its source this playfulness or the playfulness flows from the equanimity; and they can persuade other people who are in a state of agitation to calm down and manage a smile.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
