I'm very interested in some sort of daemon that regularly scans for vulnerable binaries/libraries and produces desktop notifications about this and/or hosts a web interface to review issues. I do use clamav for malicious files, but bug advisories/vulnerabilities are another area I wish I could make convenient to monitor for personal computing. I've seen things like Splunk reports in enterprise settings, but not for personal 'digital hygiene'

Anybody have a list of open source solutions here?

Every SIEM does something like that, but somebody has to actually look at the screen and take actions based on it, and that's what my job is.
This sounds like a fit for NESSUS
