Add support for Microsoft vulnerabilities and CVRF

Open pombredanne opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

MSFT releases their vulnerabilities using this CVRF format https://www.icasi.org/cvrf/

See https://github.com/Microsoft/MSRC-Microsoft-Security-Updates-API for details

@mschiffm https://github.com/mschiffm/cvrfparse is a library to likely handle this alright

These are closed source vulnerabilities, isn't that out of scope of vulnerablecode ?

Microsoft ships quite a bit of OSS code these days. Having said that, I don't know whether this feed makes sense for VulnerableCode. Someone needs to do the research on it. :)

The data from the CVRF is basically https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-us/security-guidance , majority of the vulnerabilities are of closed source Microsoft products like IE, Paint ,Windows etc. The only value these have are about .net vulnerabilities.

There is value in these after all. See ttps://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-US/security-guidance/advisory/CVE-2022-41032 It has unique information on affected NuGet versions that are not available elsewhere.
