June 22, 1997.

Infilsec has released a comprehensive vulnerability database
called the Vulnerability Engine at:

http://www.infilsec.com/vulnerabilities

The database aims to act as a repository for the vulnerabilities
and fixes of the type discussed on mailing lists such as Bugtraq,
NTBugtraq and Best-of-Security.

The database allows on-line submission and modification of
vulnerability information so bugs or fixes can be entered
or updated by anyone (albeit after moderation). We believe that
concentrating this information in a sensible form will provide
an easier method of retrieval than searching through
back archives of Bugtraq, etc.

We hope that this becomes a useful security resource and we
would welcome any feedback on the design or functionality of
the database (please bear in mind that the Vulnerability Engine
is still in development).
