This repository hosts bulk download files of CVE Records in CVE JSON 5.0 format (view the schema). You may search, download, and use the content hosted in this repository, per the CVE Program Terms of Use.

Legacy Format Downloads Available for Limited Time—Legacy format CVE List downloads that are currently available for download on the CVE.ORG website, which are derived from CVE JSON 4.0, will be phased out in the first half of 2024. Learn more here.

Releases

This repository includes release versions of all current CVE Records generated from the official CVE Services API. Baseline releases are issued once per day at midnight and posted in the following file name format: CVE Prefix-Year-Month-Day _ Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), (e.g., “CVE 2023-03-28_0000Z”). Hourly updates are also provided on the Releases page using the same file name format, with time changes encoded at the end.

Each baseline or hourly release includes three items:

• ZIP file of all current CVE Records at midnight (e.g., “2023-03-28_all_CVEs.zip”)
• ZIP file of all CVE Records added or modified since midnight (e.g., “2023-03-28_delta_CVEs_at_2200Z.zip”)
• Release Notes for the specific release

NOTE: The most current release contains the most up-to-date CVE List content. Hourly updates contain only the most recent updates.
