VulnMCP
Click on "Install 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., "@VulnMCPLook up CVE-2025-14847 and classify its severity"
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.
VulnMCP
VulnMCP is an MCP server built with FastMCP that provides AI clients, chat agents, and other automated systems with tools for vulnerability management. It offers modular "skills" that can be easily extended or integrated, enabling intelligent analysis and automated insights on software vulnerabilities.
Features
Vulnerability Severity Classification -- Automatically assess the criticality of vulnerabilities using CIRCL's fine-tuned NLP models: CIRCL/vulnerability-severity-classification-roberta-base (English), CIRCL/vulnerability-severity-classification-chinese-macbert-base (Chinese), and CIRCL/vulnerability-severity-classification-russian-ruRoberta-large (Russian).
CWE Classification -- Predict CWE categories from vulnerability descriptions using CIRCL/cwe-parent-vulnerability-classification-roberta-base.
Vulnerability Lookup -- Query the Vulnerability Lookup API to get detailed information about specific CVEs, search vulnerabilities by source, CWE, product, or date, find community comments, and discover curated vulnerability bundles.
KEV Catalog -- Browse and filter Known Exploited Vulnerability (KEV) entries, check whether a CVE appears in a KEV catalog, find recently added entries, and filter by catalog origin (CISA KEV, CIRCL, EUVD KEV).
GCVE Registry -- Query the GCVE Global Numbering Authority (GNA) registry and references to discover vulnerability allocators and KEV catalog identifiers.
Modular Architecture -- Easily add new skills or tools to expand the functionality of the MCP server.
Installation
Requires Python 3.10+ and Poetry v2+.
git clone https://github.com/vulnerability-lookup/VulnMCP.git
cd VulnMCP
poetry installRunning the MCP server
stdio (default)
The default transport, used by most MCP clients (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, etc.):
poetry run vulnmcpHTTP transport
For network access or multiple concurrent clients:
poetry run fastmcp run vulnmcp/server.py --transport http --host 127.0.0.1 --port 9000Available tools
Tool | Description |
| Classify vulnerability severity (low/medium/high/critical) from a text description. Supports English, Chinese, and Russian with auto-detection. |
| Predict CWE categories from a vulnerability description. Returns top-5 predictions with parent CWE mapping. |
| Fetch the 3 most recent CVEs for a given CWE ID. |
| Look up a specific vulnerability by ID (e.g. CVE-2025-14847) with optional comments, sightings, bundles, linked vulnerabilities, and KEV enrichment. |
| Search vulnerabilities with filters: source, CWE, product, date range, pagination, and optional KEV-aware prioritization. |
| Search vulnerability sightings (seen/exploited/patched/etc.) with filters to identify what is actively discussed or abused. |
| Create a new sighting for a vulnerability (requires API permissions on most instances). |
| Retrieve a ranking of vulnerabilities by sighting activity to help prioritize important issues. |
| Search community comments related to vulnerabilities, with filters by vulnerability ID or author. |
| Search curated vulnerability bundles (grouped CVEs for a campaign, product, or incident), with filters by vulnerability ID or author. |
| List and filter KEV catalog entries by vulnerability ID, status reason, exploited flag, date range, author, or origin catalog UUID. |
| Query cpe-guesser with product keywords to infer likely CPE identifiers. |
| List all Global Numbering Authorities (GNA) from the GCVE registry. |
| Get a specific GNA entry by numeric ID or exact short name. |
| Search GNA entries by name (case-insensitive substring match). |
| List GCVE references including KEV catalog UUIDs for use with |
