Check that my program is free from known security vulnerabilities.
For example, if a package I'm using has a security vulnerability in it, I want to be notified to upgrade or warned.
Checked the https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/search for Go related issues, but found that only core packages were listed. I noticed that some packages had vulnerabilities listed (e.g. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-1002207) but couldn't work out how to find them programatically. I wrote a program to scan the NIST database for Go language related vulnerabilities and to let me know anyway - https://github.com/a-h/nvdnotifier
