# Debian ELTS Advisories

## Background

- Debian LTS is maintained by the Debian Security team
- Debian Extended LTS, a commercial offering is maintained by Freexian.
- Debian ELTS Advisories are announced at https://www.freexian.com/lts/extended/updates/
- [OSV](https://ossf.github.io/osv-schema/) is a Open Source Vulnerability format, as specified by the [Open Source Security Foundation](https://openssf.org).
- [GSD Database](https://globalsecuritydatabase.org/) is a vulnerability database used by OSV.dev, and maintained by the [Cloud Security Alliance](https://cloudsecurityalliance.org/)

## What is this project?

The OSV.dev expects advisories to be published in the OSV format. This repository
republishes the advisories in the OSV format, and syncs them against the
[GSD Database](https://github.com/cloudsecurityalliance/gsd-database)

- [x] Picks up data from [extended-lts-security-tracker][source]
- [x] Generates advisories in the OSV format at advisories/
- [ ] Syncs Data to the GSD Database

## TODO

- [ ] Add Credits

## Source:

- Updates are fetched from the ELTS Security Tracker: 
- The data is also published at https://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts/tracker/data/json, but it doesn't include the announcement URLs, and harder to use.
- See https://github.com/ossf/osv-schema/pull/104 for more information.
