Short answer

How can I track new CVE releases with my AI?

Your AI queries the NIST NVD for vulnerabilities published within specific date ranges and tracks history for existing CVEs. You'll get a clear view of new threats and any changes to existing vulnerability details.

Where your data lands.

The results of your queries.

The AI organizes NVD data into these specific outcomes.

NEW

Recent CVE lists

The AI finds vulnerabilities released during your chosen window. You get a list of everything new in the NVD.

UPDATED

Change logs

The AI pulls the history for specific CVEs. You see exactly how a vulnerability's details have changed.

FILTERED

Targeted windows

The AI narrows the NVD database to your exact dates. This keeps the results relevant to your timeframe.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI flags the updates, but you decide which ones matter for your systems. You handle the final triage.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI handles the NVD queries so you don't have to browse the web manually.

  1. Find new vulnerabilities

    The AI searches the NVD for any entries published within your specified start and end dates.

    search_cve_by_date

  2. Check for updates

    The AI looks up the history of a specific CVE to see if the description or severity has changed.

    get_cve_change_history

  3. Filter by date

    The AI uses date parameters to isolate only the most recent or relevant vulnerability releases.

    search_cve_by_date

  4. Compare versions

    The AI retrieves the change history to show you the evolution of a single vulnerability record.

    get_cve_change_history

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI fix the vulnerabilities it finds?

    No. The AI only reads and reports data from the NVD. You must perform the actual patching yourself.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete CVE records from the NVD?

    No. This MCP is read-only. It can only pull information from the NIST database.

  • 03

    Can I search for CVEs by software name?

    No. The tools only support searching by date ranges or specific CVE IDs.

  • 04

    Does the AI provide real-time alerts?

    No. The AI only provides information when you ask it to. It does not push notifications.

  • 05

    Can the AI change the severity of a CVE?

    No. The AI can only report the severity as it is recorded in the NVD.
