Vuln Nist MCP Server Overview

HaroldFinchIFT/vuln-nist-mcp-server MCP server exposes NIST National Vulnerability Database REST API queries through MCP tools. It supports keyword searches, individual CVE lookups, CPE-based searches, CISA KEV date queries, CVE change history, and temporal context for relative dates. Large date ranges are split into concurrent requests, while inputs and CPE formats are validated before requests are sent. Use it when an MCP-compatible client needs current vulnerability data without an NVD API key.

Primary Use Cases for Vuln Nist MCP Server:
  • Search recent CVEs by keyword and date range
  • Retrieve detailed information for a CVE identifier
  • Find vulnerabilities matching a full CPE 2.3 name
  • Check CISA KEV additions between two dates
