The official distribution of the vulnerability parsing utility.
With the move from SoftwareForge to the public domain, the integrity of the application has recently been thrust into the limelight. To ensure the application is secure, please note the following measures: * Alex Kuchta has personally had his hand in every line of code in the application - there is not a single file that has not been touched, modified, or updated by him * Only four GitHub users have the power to update the application. This means that although anybody can fork the repository and change their personal repo, only one of the four "gatekeepers" can authorize a change to the
masterbranch * Each release is listed with both an
MD5and
SHA256checksum value - after you download the application, I encourage you to check the hash yourself to ensure that you downloaded what you expected * If the above measures are not enough, please feel free to create your own fork of the repository and compile the application yourself - this will allow you to do a manual code review to ensure that no malicious lines exist before creating an executable.
To get started, please check out (and bookmark!) the following locations - they are a treasure trove of knowledge (which I am told is power, and who doesn't want to be all-powerful?)!
Now that you have familiarized yourself with the available resources (you did click the links, didn't you?), jump in to using the software!
