Quick question: would it make sense to have somewhere:
- A common (computer/human readable) format for vulnerability
disclosures
- A common format for bugfix publications
?
I was thinking something like:
Software name: foo-package
Software version: 2.4-2.6,3.1
Vulnerability type: ...
.
.
.
And also some documentation on how to fill in each (eg.
vulnerability type)? And specify that these be text attachments to
e-mails, or something, so that computers can read them, and people can
read them, and it'll make everything easy.
Is there something like this already, or another forum where I
should be asking this instead?
:)
