cve-search_mcp
Enables interaction with the CVE-Search API through a repository hosted on GitHub, allowing users to query and retrieve comprehensive vulnerability information.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@cve-search_mcp show me the latest CVEs for Microsoft Windows 10"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
CVE-Search MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for querying the CVE-Search API. This server provides comprehensive access to CVE-Search, browse vendor and product、get CVE per CVE-ID、get the last updated CVEs.

Scored across 6 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose targeting specific CVE-related queries: searching by ID, checking database status, retrieving recent CVEs, finding vulnerabilities by vendor/product, listing products per vendor, and listing all vendors. There is no overlap in functionality, making tool selection unambiguous.
All tools follow a consistent 'vul_' prefix and snake_case naming pattern (e.g., vul_cve_search, vul_vendor_products), with clear and descriptive names that indicate the resource and action. This uniformity enhances readability and predictability.
With 6 tools, the server is well-scoped for CVE search and vulnerability management, covering key operations like lookup, updates, recent entries, and vendor/product queries. Each tool serves a specific, non-redundant purpose, making the count appropriate for the domain.
The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for querying CVE data, including searches by ID, vendor, product, and recent entries, plus database status. A minor gap is the lack of tools for filtering or sorting beyond basic queries, but core workflows are fully supported without dead ends.
