CVE Cross Reference

Common Vulnerability Exposure (CVE) data is updated dynamically by SAINT® as part of each release/update cycle. The Generated Date (by MITRE) and Updated Date (collected by SAINT®) are stored with CVE content created as part of this update process. The following describe how to access the generated and updated dates for CVEs:

  • Go to the command prompt and navigate to the SAINT installation directory.
  • Navigate to the config subdirectory.
  • Open either the cve-cpe or cve-cvss file in the config subdirectory.
  • View the Generated and Updated dates for the CVE content in the lines prefixed with the '#' character, for example:
       # nvdcve-2.0-2002.xml     Generated Date: xxxx-xx-xx
    Note that every such line contains the name of the source file from which the data following that line was extracted, along with both the generated and updated dates for the source file.

The CVE Cross Reference is separated into files by the year of the CVEs. The CVEs section includes:
