# CVE Automation Working Group Git Pilot
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [CVE Automation Working
|
|
|
|
Group](https://github.com/CVEProject/automation-working-group) is
|
|
|
|
piloting use of git to share information about public vulnerabilities.
|
|
|
|
The goal is to learn not only what features are necessary to support
|
|
|
|
the "plumbing" of sending and receiving the data, but also which
|
|
|
|
attributes and metadata are needed in the CVE format to support
|
|
|
|
automation.

This repository holds information included in the [CVE
|
2019-04-29 11:36:04 -04:00
|
|
|
List](https://cve.mitre.org/cve/) formatted using the [CVE JSON
|
2017-10-16 12:26:05 -04:00
|
|
|
format](https://github.com/CVEProject/automation-working-group/tree/master/cve_json_schema).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use of the CVE information in this repository is subject to the [CVE
|
|
|
|
Terms of Use](https://cve.mitre.org/about/termsofuse.html).

|
## Overview of the Repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Information about each CVE id is stored as a unique file in the repo
|
|
|
|
in a subdirectory based on the year as well as the numeric portion of
|
|
|
|
the id, truncated by 1,000. Thus, [2017/3xxx](2017/3xxx) is for
|
|
|
|
CVE-2017-3000 - CVE-2017-3999, and [2017/1002xxx](2017/1002xxx) is for
|
|
|
|
CVE-2017-1002000 - CVE-2017-1002999.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The CVE Team updates these files automatically every hour using
|
|
|
|
information from the CVE List, provided there have been changes. The
|
|
|
|
synchronization job kicks off at the top of the hour and should
|
|
|
|
complete within 5 minutes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For ids that have been populated, the files contain the description
|
|
|
|
and references that appear in the [CVE
|
2019-04-29 11:36:04 -04:00
|
|
|
List](https://cve.mitre.org/cve/). They may also contain
|
2017-10-16 12:26:05 -04:00
|
|
|
information about the affected product(s) and problem type(s), which
|
|
|
|
CNAs have been supplying when making assignments during the past year
|
|
|
|
but which is not included in the CVE List. And going forward, it is
|
|
|
|
hoped that they will contain a richer collection of information about
|
|
|
|
the vulnerability, as supported by the full CVE JSON schema.
