# The security/cvechecker port

## cvechecker-3.6 – local CVE checker tool

## Description

    The goal of cvechecker is to report about possible vulnerabilities on
    your system, by scanning the installed software and matching the results
    with the CVE database. Indeed, this is not a bullet-proof method and you
    will most likely have many false positives (vulnerability is fixed with
    a revision-release, but the tool isn't able to detect the revision
    itself), yet it is still better than nothing, especially if you are
    running a distribution with little security coverage.

    Available flavors:
    	mysql - add support for MySQL backend
