Ways to follow newly discovered vulnerabilities?

  • 772

I happened to be in a situation where I am in charge for 100+ systems on top of my job as a programmer. Everything we run is Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Centos) and gladly our sysadmin set everything with chef, so security patches can be applied quickly.

I would like to know how can I follow newly discovered vulnerabilities spending least amount of time.

As a programmer I am a fan of Gemnasium, which does this kind of job for ruby gems I use in my projects.

    To be updated regarding your distribution your first stop should be the appropriate mailinglist and the advisory list from distribution

    Debian

    Mailinglist: https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/subscribe

    Webpage: https://www.debian.org/security/

    CentOS

    Mailinglist: http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo

    Webpage: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/

    Ubuntu

    Maillist: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce

    Webpage: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/

    Further you can keep an eye on http://nvd.nist.gov/ or https://cve.mitre.org/
