We have nixpkgs/pkgs/build-support/upstream-updater. I think it's a tool
that takes metadata from a package to find updates. But it's used by 8
packages tops and it's doc is in doc/old/update-upstream-data.txt.
Somewhere we also have a tool that tracks CVEs against packages with a
heuristic but I don't remember where it is anymore.
