This release includes major improvements to the way NVD data is used and
stored. If you have tried the development tree from Github, you may wish
to run cve-bin-tool -u now after you upgrade to remove old data.
There are now three output formats:
- Console (like before only prettier)
- CSV (comma-delimted text, suitable for import into spreadsheets)
- JSON (suitable for machine parsing)
And 17 new checkers (as well as improved tests for some of the old):
- binutils
- bluez
- bzip2
- ffmpeg
- gnutls
- gstreamer
- hostapd
- libcurl
- libdb
- ncurses
- ngnix
- openssh
- python
- rsyslog
- strongswan
- syslogng
- varnish

improve our onboarding process and just brought a huge amount of energy to
this project in 2020.
