cve-schema specifies the CVE JSON record format. This is the blueprint for a rich set of JSON data that can be submitted by CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) and Authorized Data Publishers (ADPs) to describe a CVE Record. Some examples of CVE Record data include CVE ID number, affected product(s), affected version(s), and public references. While those specific items are required when assigning a CVE, there are many other optional data in the schema that can be used to enrich CVE Records for community benefit. Learn more about the CVE program at the official website. This CVE JSON record format is defined using JSON Schema. Learn more about JSON Schema here.

A set of structures (called containers) used to store vulnerability information related to a specific CVE ID provided by a specific organization participating in the CVE program. Each container includes information provided by a different source.
At minimum, a 'cna' container containing the vulnerability information provided by the CNA who initially assigned the CVE ID must be included.
There can only be one 'cna' container, as there can only be one assigning CNA. However, there can be multiple 'adp' containers, allowing multiple organizations participating in the CVE program to add additional information related to the vulnerability. For the most part, the 'cna' and 'adp' containers contain the same properties. The main differences are the source of the information and the 'cna' container requires the CNA include certain fields, while the 'adp' container does not.

List of taxonomy items related to the vulnerability.
Same definition as taxonomyMappingsAll property whose name matches the following regular expression must respect the following conditions
Property name regular expression:^x_[^.]*$ If the CVE ID and associated CVE Record should no longer be used, the CVE Record is placed in the Rejected state. A Rejected CVE Record remains on the CVE List so that users can know when it is invalid.
No Additional PropertiesIndicates the type of information represented in the JSON instance.
Same definition as dataTypeThe version of the schema being used. Used to support multiple versions of this format.
Same definition as dataVersionThis is meta data about the CVE ID such as the CVE ID, who requested it, who assigned it, when it was requested, the current state (PUBLISHED, REJECTED, etc.) and so on. These fields are controlled by the CVE Services.
No Additional PropertiesThe UUID for the organization to which the CVE ID was originally assigned.
Same definition as assignerOrgIdThe short name for the organization to which the CVE ID was originally assigned.
Same definition as assignerShortNameThe system of record causes this to start at 1, and increment by 1 each time a submission from a data provider changes this CVE Record. The incremented value moves to the Rejected schema upon a PUBLISHED->REJECTED transition, and moves to the Published schema upon a REJECTED->PUBLISHED transition.
Value must be greater or equal to 1
The date/time the CVE Record was first published in the CVE List.
Same definition as dateUpdatedState of CVE - PUBLISHED, REJECTED.
The date/time this CVE ID was reserved in the CVE automation workgroup services system. Disclaimer: This date reflects when the CVE ID was reserved, and does not necessarily indicate when this vulnerability was discovered, shared with the affected vendor, publicly disclosed, or updated in CVE.
Same definition as dateUpdatedA set of structures (called containers) used to store vulnerability information related to a specific CVE ID provided by a specific organization participating in the CVE program. Each container includes information provided by a different source.
At minimum, a 'cna' container containing the vulnerability information provided by the CNA who initially assigned the CVE ID must be included.
There can only be one 'cna' container, as there can only be one assigning CNA.
An object containing the vulnerability information provided by a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) for a rejected CVE ID. There can only be one CNA container per CVE record since there can only be one assigning CNA.
