CVE - Submission Guides

Everything you need to know about MITRE CVE program and your CVE requests.

If you have submitted or you are going to submit a new CVE, this is something you need to know in advance:

  • You should add cve-request [at] mitre.org and cve [at] mitre.org as safe senders in your email client before completing this form.

  • Next, you will receive the automatic email from cve-request [at] mitre.org with the subject: "CVE Request xxxxxx for CVE ID Request".

  • From here, arm yourself with patience and wait a little more! Your request will be picked up but that is a time-consuming process: sometimes it takes some days and sometimes it takes a month (depending on the type of vulnerability, vendor, and so on).
