Hi everybody,

I'm happy to announce my tiny project named arch-audit[1].

It parses the CVE wiki page[2] and reports which packages on your system are 
affected by a vulnerability and if a fixed version for that package is already 
available.
Something like pkg-audit on FreeBSD, but not so powerful (yet!!!).

I just made it and released, so it's more than alpha and your feedbacks are 
needed!

I hope you find it useful.

Cheers
