Bugtraq

Bugtraq is an electronic mailing list dedicated to issues about computer security. On-topic issues include new discussions about vulnerabilities, vendor security-related announcements, methods of exploitation, and how to fix them. Bugtraq has historically been a high-volume mailing list, with as many as 776 posts in a month, and almost all new security vulnerabilities were discussed on the list in its early days. The forum provided a vehicle for anyone to disclose and discuss computer vulnerabilities, including security researchers and product vendors. The list was dormant from early 2021 to August 2026, when it was reactivated under new ownership.
