It is our honour to announce the release of **Vulnerability-Lookup 4.2.0**!  
This version brings a large number of new CSAF-based vulnerability advisory sources, improvements to the web interface, and several bug fixes.

## What’s New

### New CSAF-based sources

As the number of GNA keeps growing and the interest around the [GCVE-EU initiative](https://gcve.eu) increases, these UI improvements and filtering  
capabilities are becoming essential to efficiently explore the various available sources.

Below is the list of CSAF-based sources available by default. You can enable or disable each feeder via the  
`config/modules.cfg` configuration file. The display in the web interface is also configurable through the  
`config/website.py` configuration file.
