Vulnerability-Lookup
Vulnerability-Lookup facilitates quick correlation of vulnerabilities from various sources, independent of vulnerability IDs, and streamlines the management of Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD). Vulnerability-Lookup is also a collaborative platform where users can comment on security advisories and create bundles.
A Vulnerability-Lookup instance operated by CIRCL is available at https://vulnerability.circl.lu.
Features
- API: A comprehensive and fast lookup API for searching vulnerabilities and identifying correlations by vulnerability identifier.
- Feeders: Modular system to import vulnerabilities from different sources.
- CVD process: Creation, edition and fork/copy of Security Advisories with the vulnogram editor. Support of local vulnerability source per Vulnerability-Lookup instance.
- Sightings: Users have the possibility to add observations to vulnerabilities with different types of sightings, such as: seen, exploited, not exploited, confirmed, not confirmed, patched, and not patched.
- Comments: Ability to add, review and share comments on vulnerability advisories.
- Bundles: Possibility to create bundles of vulnerability advisories with a description.
- RSS/Atom: An extensive RSS and Atom support for vulnerabilities and comments.
- EPSS: Integration of the Exploit Prediction Scoring System.
The official documentation is available here.

Sighting Sources
Vulnerability-Lookup facilitates the recording of vulnerability sightings, regardless of whether they have been published by a source. A suite of sighting clients is already available to support this functionality:
- Fediverse - A sighting client to gather vulnerability-related information from the Fediverse
- MISP - A sighting client that retrieves vulnerability observations from a MISP server and pushes them to a Vulnerability-Lookup instance
- Nuclei - A sighting client designed to retrieve vulnerability-related information from the Nuclei Git repository of templates.
- Exploit-DB - A client that retrieves vulnerability observations from Exploit-DB and pushes them to a Vulnerability-Lookup instance
- CISA KEV - Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog
- RSS - Newspipe is a web news aggregator capable to detect various types of security advisories within articles.
If you want to create your own sigthing tool, it’s recommended to use PyVulnerabilityLookup, a Python library to access Vulnerability-Lookup via its REST API.
