April 2026 was the busiest month for oss-security in 11 years. 311 messages posted. We surpassed the XZ backdoor spike of March-April 2024. We last had 300+ in April 2015 when we still had CVE assignment via the list. Now we're back without that incentive. openwall.com/lists/oss-secu…

What should @Openwall's simpler vulnerability scoring system (CVSS alternative) be called? Note that we already have OVE openwall.com/ove/ as a CVE alternative, but unfortunately the OVSS acronym already has a bit of use in CS/AI for "open-vocabulary semantic segmentation".

End of an era: our CVSweb service turned 21 today, and was promptly retired. Our anoncvs was similarly shut down at the age of 21 two years ago, quietly.

All of our projects previously maintained in CVS are now in Git (yes, older ones with commit histories for ~20 years) and under the Openwall organization on GitHub. There are a total of 22 Git repositories now. openwall.com/lists/announce… github.com/openwall

#MITRE #CVE is great (dead?), but @Openwall 's #OVE has been a system for vuln. tracking-ID since 2016 ! Ex: #Exim CVE-2019-13917 also has OVE ID: OVE-20190718-0006 I used both for tracking vulnerabilities since 2k16. Time to give #OVE more visibility: openwall.com/ove/
