BugSpy – Crawls The Web For Open Source Software Bugs
Darknet spilled these bits on May 21st 2009 @ 10:50 am

BugSpy is an interesting web site I came across recently, put together using a Python Framework (django) it aggregates bugs from as many open source projects as it can find. Preferably critical bugs.

BugSpy

You can search by tag (e.g java, email or php ) or by product name (e.g Ubuntu, Typo3 or Samba).

    The “Exploitables Detector” link (http://bugspy.net/exposer) is interesting. From what I understand, it tries to guess which bugs pose security vulnerabilities.

    Don’t know about earlier ones but I know there is also the opensourcedb which is doing roughly the same thing, only via email notification.

    Also, if anyone cares to you can normally sign up for maillist of bugtraq and others to get similar info.

    Nice work, specially exposer section. This will make a step closer to a full disclosure script kiddie in my opinion.

    Does this scan for known vulns or does it search through the source code and find them itself?

    I believe it pulls the info from the bug repository of all the projects and aggregates it, it doesn’t scan code for ‘new’ bugs.
