Attributes

CaptionNameTypeDescription
Base Score base_score Float The CVSS base score. For example: 9.1.
CVSS Depth depth String The CVSS depth represents a depth of the equation used to calculate CVSS score.
  • Base: Base (BASE)
  • Environmental: Environmental (ENVIRONMENTAL)
  • Temporal: Temporal (TEMPORAL)
Metrics metrics Metric[] The Common Vulnerability Scoring System metrics. This attribute contains information on the CVE's impact. If the CVE has been analyzed, this attribute will contain any CVSSv2 or CVSSv3 information associated with the vulnerability. For example: { {"Access Vector", "Network"}, {"Access Complexity", "Low"}, ...}.
Overall Score overall_score Float The CVSS overall score, impacted by base, temporal, and environmental metrics. For example: 9.1.
Raw Data raw_data JSON Group:context
The event data as received from the event source.
Record ID record_id String Group:primary
Unique identifier for the object
Severity severity String

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Qualitative Severity Rating. A textual representation of the numeric score.

CVSS v2.0
  • Low (0.0 – 3.9)
  • Medium (4.0 – 6.9)
  • High (7.0 – 10.0)

CVSS v3.0
  • None (0.0)

  • High (7.0 - 8.9)
  • Critical (9.0 - 10.0)
Source URL src_url URL String Entity:URL_STRING
The source URL for the CVSS score. For example: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-44228
Unmapped unmapped Unmapped[] Data from the source that was not mapped into the schema.
Vector String vector_string String The CVSS vector string is a text representation of a set of CVSS metrics. It is commonly used to record or transfer CVSS metric information in a concise form. For example: 3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H.
Vendor Name vendor_name String The vendor that provided the CVSS score. For example: NVD, REDHAT etc.
Version version String The CVSS version. For example: 3.1.
