A couple of days ago Open Sourced Vulnerability Database (OSVDB) project announced its shut down.

The blog post says:

“As of today, a decision has been made to shut down the Open Sourced Vulnerability Database (OSVDB), and will not return. We are not looking for anyone to offer assistance at this point, and it will not be resurrected in its previous form. This was not an easy decision, and several of us struggled for well over ten years trying to make it work at great personal expense. The industry simply did not want to contribute and support such an effort. The OSVDB blog will continue to be a place for providing commentary on all things related to the vulnerability world”

As it appears, no one cares about vulnerabilities any more. OSVDB was announced in August 2002 and launched in March 2004. The project contributed vulnerability intelligence to IT security community for over 12 years. The project was supported by two well-known security companies High-Tech Bridge and Risk Based Security.
