The '''Open Sourced Vulnerability Database''' ('''OSVDB)''') was an independent and open-sourced [[vulnerability database]]. The goal of the project was to provide accurate, detailed, current, and unbiased technical information on [[Information security|security]] vulnerabilities. The project promoted greater and more open collaboration between companies and individuals.

Its goal was to provide accurate, unbiased information about security vulnerabilities in computerized equipment. The core of OSVDB was a relational database which tied various information about security vulnerabilities into a common, cross-referenced [[open security]] data source. As of November, 2013, the database cataloged over 100,000 vulnerabilities.
