CVE JSON record format


cve-schema specifies the CVE JSON record format. This is the blueprint for a rich set of JSON data that can be submitted by CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) and Authorized Data Publishers (ADPs) to describe a CVE Record. Some examples of CVE Record data include CVE ID number, affected product(s), affected version(s), and public references. While those specific items are required when assigning a CVE, there are many other optional data in the schema that can be used to enrich CVE Records for community benefit. Learn more about the CVE program at the official website. This CVE JSON record format is defined using JSON Schema. Learn more about JSON Schema here.

Type: object

When a CNA populates the data associated with a CVE ID as a CVE Record, the state of the CVE Record is Published.

No Additional Properties

Type: enum (of string)

Indicates the type of information represented in the JSON instance.

Must be one of:

  • "CVE_RECORD"

Type: string Default: "5.1.0"

The version of the CVE schema used for validating this record. Used to support multiple versions of this format.

Must match regular expression: ^5\.(0|[1-9][0-9]*)(\.(0|[1-9][0-9]*))?$

Type: object

This is meta data about the CVE ID such as the CVE ID, who requested it, who assigned it, when it was requested, the current state (PUBLISHED, REJECTED, etc.) and so on. These fields are controlled by the CVE Services.

No Additional Properties

Type: string

The CVE identifier that this record pertains to.

Must match regular expression: ^CVE-[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{4,19}$

Type: string

The UUID for the organization to which the CVE ID was originally assigned. This UUID can be used to lookup the organization record in the user registry service.

Must match regular expression: ^[0-9A-Fa-f]{8}-[0-9A-Fa-f]{4}-4[0-9A-Fa-f]{3}-[89ABab][0-9A-Fa-f]{3}-[0-9A-Fa-f]{12}$

Type: string

The short name for the organization to which the CVE ID was originally assigned.

Must be at least 2 characters long

Type: integer

The system of record causes this to start at 1, and increment by 1 each time a submission from a data provider changes this CVE Record. The incremented value moves to the Rejected schema upon a PUBLISHED->REJECTED transition, and moves to the Published schema upon a REJECTED->PUBLISHED transition.

Value must be greater or equal to 1

Type: string

The date/time this CVE ID was reserved in the CVE automation workgroup services system. Disclaimer: This date reflects when the CVE ID was reserved, and does not necessarily indicate when this vulnerability was discovered, shared with the affected vendor, publicly disclosed, or updated in CVE.

Same definition as dateUpdated

Type: string

The date/time the CVE Record was first published in the CVE List.

Same definition as dateUpdated

Type: enum (of string)

State of CVE - PUBLISHED, REJECTED.

  • "PUBLISHED"

Type: object

A set of structures (called containers) used to store vulnerability information related to a specific CVE ID provided by a specific organization participating in the CVE program. Each container includes information provided by a different source.

At a minimum, a 'cna' container containing the vulnerability information provided by the CNA who initially assigned the CVE ID must be included.

There can only be one 'cna' container, as there can only be one assigning CNA. However, there can be multiple 'adp' containers, allowing multiple organizations participating in the CVE program to add additional information related to the vulnerability. For the most part, the 'cna' and 'adp' containers contain the same properties. The main differences are the source of the information. The 'cna' container requires the CNA to include certain fields, while the 'adp' container does not.

No Additional Properties

Type: object

Must be at least 1 characters long

Must be at most 2048 characters long

Type: array of string

Affected products defined by CPE. This is an array of CPE values (vulnerable and not), we use an array so that we can make multiple statements about the same version and they are separate (if we used a JSON object we'd essentially be keying on the CPE name and they would have to overlap). Also, this allows things like cveDataVersion or cveDescription to be applied directly to the product entry. This also allows more complex statements such as "Product X between versions 10.2 and 10.8" to be put in a machine-readable format. As well since multiple statements can be used multiple branches of the same product can be defined here.

All items must be unique

Each item of this array must be:

Type: string

Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) Name in either 2.2 or 2.3 format

Must match regular expression: ([c][pP][eE]:/[AHOaho]?(:[A-Za-z0-9._\-~%]*){0,6})|(cpe:2\.3:[aho*\-](:(((\?*|\*?)([a-zA-Z0-9\-._]|(\\[\\*?!"#$%&'()+,/:;<=>@\[\]\^`{|}~]))+(\?*|\*?))|[*\-])){5}(:(([a-zA-Z]{2,3}(-([a-zA-Z]{2}|[0-9]{3}))?)|[*\-]))(:(((\?*|\*?)([a-zA-Z0-9\-._]|(\\[\\*?!"#$%&'()+,/:;<=>@\[\]\^`{|}~]))+(\?*|\*?))|[*\-])){4})

Type: enum (of string)

The default status for versions that are not otherwise listed in the versions list. If not specified, defaultStatus defaults to 'unknown'. Versions or defaultStatus may be omitted, but not both.

Must be one of:

  • "affected"
  • "unaffected"
  • "unknown"

Type: array of object

Set of product versions or version ranges related to the vulnerability. The versions satisfy the CNA Rules 8.1.2 requirement. Versions or defaultStatus may be omitted, but not both.

Must contain a minimum of 1 items

All items must be unique

Each item of this array must be:


A single version or a range of versions, with vulnerability status.

An entry with only 'version' and 'status' indicates the status of a single version.

Otherwise, an entry describes a range; it must include the 'versionType' property, to define the version numbering semantics in use, and 'limit', to indicate the non-inclusive upper limit of the range. The object describes the status for versions V such that 'version' <= V and V < 'limit', using the <= and < semantics defined for the specific kind of 'versionType'. Status changes within the range can be specified by an optional 'changes' list.

The algorithm to decide the status specified for a version V is:

for entry in product.versions {
    if entry.lessThan is not present and entry.lessThanOrEqual is not present and v == entry.version {
        return entry.status
    }
    if (entry.lessThan is present and entry.version <= v and v < entry.lessThan) or
       (entry.lessThanOrEqual is present and entry.version <= v and v <= entry.lessThanOrEqual) { // <= and < defined by entry.versionType
        status = entry.status
        for change in entry.changes {
            if change.at <= v {
                status = change.status
            }
        }
        return status
    }
}
return product.defaultStatus

Must be at least 1 characters long

Must be at most 1024 characters long

Type: enum (of string)

The vulnerability status for the version or range of versions. For a range, the status may be refined by the 'changes' list.

Same definition as defaultStatus

Type: string

The version numbering system used for specifying the range. This defines the exact semantics of the comparison (less-than) operation on versions, which is required to understand the range itself. 'Custom' indicates that the version type is unspecified and should be avoided whenever possible. It is included primarily for use in conversion of older data files.

Must be at least 1 characters long

Must be at most 128 characters long


Examples:

"custom"
"git"
"maven"
"python"
"rpm"
"semver"

Type: string

The non-inclusive upper limit of the range. This is the least version NOT in the range. The usual version syntax is expanded to allow a pattern to end in an asterisk (*), indicating an arbitrarily large number in the version ordering. For example, {version: 1.0 lessThan: 1.*} would describe the entire 1.X branch for most range kinds, and {version: 2.0, lessThan: *} describes all versions starting at 2.0, including 3.0, 5.1, and so on. Only one of lessThan and lessThanOrEqual should be specified.

Same definition as version

Type: string

The inclusive upper limit of the range. This is the greatest version contained in the range. Only one of lessThan and lessThanOrEqual should be specified. For example, {version: 1.0, lessThanOrEqual: 1.3} covers all versions from 1.0 up to and including 1.3.

Same definition as version

Type: array of object

A list of status changes that take place during the range. The array should be sorted in increasing order by the 'at' field, according to the versionType, but clients must re-sort the list themselves rather than assume it is sorted.

Must contain a minimum of 1 items

All items must be unique

Each item of this array must be:
