Or would you recommend another feed (e.g. the one where NVD gets its data from)?NVD's XML data feed is probably the best out there that's publicly available. Representatives of CVE-compatible product authors, vulnerability databases, and software vendors can get direct access to an email-based feed from MITRE, which is the feed that NVD uses. MITRE hasn't opened this to the general public because most people would use it like a database, and we don't want to compete with other feeds out there. Guess that's kind of silly these days given that NVD turns it around in 5 minutes, but there it is.
In June you said more regular updates to the MITRE site will probably happen this summer. This was what I was waiting for so we don't need to adapt the software behind our security tracker :) Any news on this?
