Initial import

vulnsearch:	list all vulnerabilities of a given program
vulnupdate:	grab a copy of the latest CVE list from MITRE
vulnpkg:	lists vulnerabilities for all packages known to pkg_info

Installation
-----------------
You will need to run ./vulnupdate first to get the latest CVE list (uses wget)

Usage
-----------------
If you are running on a FreeBSD system, you can just run ./vulnpkg to see
CVEs that might affect binary packages you have installed.

vulnsearch just greps and parses the CSV file so anything you can pass to grep
is fair game. By passing vulnsearch the CVE ID you'll get more info than the
summary listings.

Syntax					Example
./vulnsearch [package basename]		./vulnsearch apache
./vulnsearch [CVE ID]			./vulnsearch CVE-2006-1708
./vulnsearch [regex]			./vulnsearch ^CVE-200[56]-00[0-9].
					# ^^ this shows the first 100
					# CVEs issued in 2005 and 2006
