Advisory Check is a program that reads security advisories for you. It gathers security advisories using RSS, RDF, or XML feeds, compares them against the installed software, and alerts you if you're vulnerable. A wide variety of package managers can be queried to detect installed software. Remote systems can be monitored by using the integrated SSH, Windows-RPC, and Nmap support.
Quite a few CERTs and vendors offer security-relevant feeds.
Mailing lists can be monitored using feeds provided by some web archives.
Some usenet gateways like Google Groups also offer RSS subscriptions.
Think of advchk as your personal trainee, who reads boring advisories and presents you the ones that could be interesting =)
