  • Please see the BSides Dublin 2024 presentation video and deck.

The dataset includes:

  • ~230K published CVEs (excluding those marked Rejected) i.e. all CVEs up to April 3 2024 NVD Published date.
  • The CVE ID, Description text, and Key Risk Phrases

As of April 2024, CVE_KeyPhrases stands as the largest dataset of CVEs with extracted Key Risk Phrases with high Precision (how many retrieved items are relevant?) and Recall (how many relevant items are retrieved?).

  • It's an initial release and will be improved and enriched over time.
