ebarrettoWe are aware of the recent MITRE [news](https://www.csoonline.com/article/3963190/cve-program-faces-swift-end-after-dhs-fails-to-renew-contract-leaving-security-flaw-tracking-in-limbo.html).09:40
ebarrettoThe situation is ongoing, with industry/ecosystem members (ourselves included) discussing how to proceed.09:40
ebarrettoWe will monitor the situation as it progresses and will comment once there is more clarity on its impact and path forward.09:40
JanCebarretto: from what I understand there is alternative funding from CISA for now (until another solution is found)13:52
mdeslauryeah, we just saw that, hopefully we'll see an official statement soon13:53
mdeslaurand not just news reports13:53
JanC:)13:53
ebarrettoyeah, so far the "trust me" sources makes us a bit skeptical 13:54
ebarrettoalso with CISA having funds cut, not sure if this is a long term solution 13:54
JanCyes, the reports I saw were specific that this was temporary to avoid a shutdown tonight13:55
JanCso definitely not a long-term solution13:56
mdeslaurthey sent $100 using venmo13:57
ebarrettolol13:58
JanCprobably a good idea for the future to work with a combination of multiple projects/organisations like e.g. EUVD/ENISA and similar also13:59
mdeslauryes, definitely13:59
mdeslaurstill waiting to see who is behind https://www.thecvefoundation.org/14:00
JanCyeah, they should be independent and trustworthy for sure14:04
ebarrettoJanC: it might be official now https://www.cisa.gov/ 15:01
ebarrettoeven though not clear what it means 15:01
tomreynthis must be related to april being the National Supply Chain Integrity Month15:05
tomreynalso emergency communications month15:05
tomreynhope they'll prevail, and can sometime ensure reliable funding. :-/ if it doesn't work out, EU's ENISA has 15 (also not too well paid) FTEs working on their vulnerability DB and related tasks nowadays.15:08
