IT security professionals need an efficient and reliable solution for identifying known vulnerabilities in a software product, given its name and version.
Our colleagues at usd HeroLab place high demands on such a solution. They evaluated several available solutions to arrive at the conclusion that not one of them sufficiently meet their requirements. Core challenges in this area include different names for the same product, complex version numbers and data timeliness. As a consequence, they have started developing their own tool: search_vulns.
