An open source, public, and free API to the National Institute for Technology's National Vulnerability Database: https://nvd.nist.gov/
- The National Vulnerability Database (or NVD) is an extremely valuable resource that provides regularly updated details on known vulnerabilites and the products that they affect.
- The NVD can be queried with a user friendly search interface, but the maintainers do not offer an API for machine to machine queries.
- The NVD also offers regularly updated data files free of charge.
- The NVD-API project seeks to expose the entirety of the existing NVD as well as regularly integrate NVD updates over a RESTful API free of charge for consumers.
- The NVD-API project is an open source option for those wishing to integrate NVD database results into their product.
Thanks to Surge for their generous support of this and many other open source projects benefiting our community!
