It might be useful to harvest the Global Security Database, a new project:

@TG1999 We should setup a time for the GSD and VulnerableCode folks to touch base, understand each other's efforts, and how we can work together.

[TG1999]

@joshbuker It would be great! tell us when could be a good time for you as we are a scattered around the globe.
We also idle on this chat channel https://gitter.im/aboutcode-org/vulnerablecode

@TG1999 I sent you a direct message via gitter following up on this.

Looking forward to getting in touch!

See this for an example of the data (note problems with vague version range):

we also do not know how the data was gathered, especially the criteria for selection.
