# Look up CVEs with CVSS scores, CWE and CISA KEV status

**Use case:** 

Looks up the two sample CVEs in the NVD and returns their CVSS scores and vectors, CWE weaknesses, CISA KEV status, references and affected products, one row per CVE. Swap in your own CVE ids, keywords or products.

## Input

```json
{
  "cveIds": [
    "CVE-2021-44228",
    "CVE-2014-0160"
  ],
  "keywordExactMatch": false,
  "cvssV3Severity": "",
  "onlyKev": false,
  "excludeRejected": true,
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 200
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "cveId": {
    "label": "CVE",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "baseScore": {
    "label": "Score",
    "format": "number"
  },
  "baseSeverity": {
    "label": "Severity",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "cvssVersion": {
    "label": "CVSS",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "cwes": {
    "label": "CWE",
    "format": "array"
  },
  "inCisaKev": {
    "label": "CISA KEV",
    "format": "boolean"
  },
  "published": {
    "label": "Published",
    "format": "date"
  },
  "description": {
    "label": "Description",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "query": {
    "label": "Input",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "error": {
    "label": "Error",
    "format": "text"
  }
}
```

## How it works

### 1. Sign up on Apify or log in

The CVE Lookup: NVD vulnerabilities with CVSS, CWE and KEV Actor is ready to run with the inputs already set for "Look up CVEs with CVSS scores, CWE and CISA KEV status". [Sign up or log in](https://console.apify.com/create-task-from-example/MeQ1y0ZqhvfWsf1ec) and you'll land in Apify Console with a copy of this exact task.

### 2. Start the "Look up CVEs with CVSS scores, CWE and CISA KEV status" task

The CVE Lookup: NVD vulnerabilities with CVSS, CWE and KEV Actor will start running based on the input automatically. You can also change all the input fields, like CVE ids, match keyword phrases exactly, and more, to match your specific use case.

### 3. Receive the "Look up CVEs with CVSS scores, CWE and CISA KEV status" output

Monitor the progress in real time. You will be notified as soon as your dataset is complete and ready for review. Each result includes data such as CVE, score, severity, and more.

### 4. Integrate into your workflow

The final output is delivered in JSON, CSV, or Excel format, ready to be plugged into your workflow. You can also [run the "Look up CVEs with CVSS scores, CWE and CISA KEV status" task via API](https://apify.com/examsens.ai/cve-lookup.md).

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [CVE Lookup: NVD vulnerabilities with CVSS, CWE and KEV](https://apify.com/examsens.ai/cve-lookup.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/examsens.ai/cve-lookup.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/examsens.ai/cve-lookup.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
