Product Accessibility <CR_2.4>
Provide a short description of how and where your capability is made available to your customers and the public (required):
vFeed Python API and vFeed SQLite Vulnerability Database can be downloaded using the GitHub service. Once the vFeed Python API is installed, the customers can leverage a simple update to retrieve the full SQlite vFeed Vulnerability Database.The vFeed Python API can be retrieved from the following URL:
https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed
Or, installed on any system running Python and SQLite using the following CLI:
#git clone https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed.git
Once installed, the users can leverage the following syntax:
#python vfeedcli.py update
(output sample)
[install] getting fresh copy of vfeed.db. It may take a while ...
[progress 1 %] receiving 483328 out of 43325357 Bytes of vfeed.db.tgz
Map Currency Indication <CR_5.1>
Describe how and where your capability indicates the most recent CVE version used to create or update its mappings (required):
The users can leverage from command line the following syntax:#python vfeedcli.py get_cve CVE-2014-10038
[cve_description]: SQL injection vulnerability in agenda/indexdate.php in DomPHP 0.83 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the ids parameter. [cve_published]: 2015-01-13T10:59:48.210-05:00 [cve_modified]: 2015-01-14T15:11:21.137-05:00 The get_cve method returns the CVE ID alongside the relevant information as description and dates.
The get_cve method returns the CVE ID alongside the relevant information as description and dates.
Map Currency Update Approach <CR_5.2>
Indicate how often you plan on updating the mappings to reflect the current CVE content and describe your approach to keeping reasonably current with the CVE content when mapping them to your repository (required):
All new entries are added to our vFeed vulnerability database community within 15 business days. We fully rely on NVD CVE XML current year, recent and modified feeds. Once a quarter, the full XML NVD feeds are rescanned to generate a new fresh SQLite database.The users and researchers can leverage the following command to check the newest current CVEs: #python vfeedcli.py get_latest (sample output)

CVE-2015-0231
CVE-2015-0232
--- Snip ---
Map Currency Update Time <CR_5.3>
Describe how and where you explain to your customers the timeframe they should expect an update of your capability’s mappings to reflect newly available CVE content (required):
Due to the complexity of the vFeed Vulnerability Database Community's update process (as we rely on more than 50 different data sources, tools, signatures and feeds), the alerts are retrieved each fifteen (15) business days.
Map Content Selection Criteria <CR_5.4>
Describe the criteria used for determining the relevance of a given CVE Identifier to your Capability (required):
vFeed intends to cross-link and aggregated data from different sources. The CVE ID is the main identifier for vfeed.db and we ensure that all our sources attributes have at least one validated CVE Identifier.
Map Currency Update Mechanism <CR_5.4>
Describe the mechanism used for reviewing CVE for content changes (required):
We are updating the content of vFeed.db SQLite Vulnerability Database Community every fifteen (15) business days based partially on the NVD XML repository. In addition, we are using extra data sources feeds to extend the reliability of the vulnerability database.
Map Content Source <CR_5.5>
Describe the source of your CVE content (required):
The main feed for the CVEs basic information (such as Identifier and Description) is the NVD website. However, we use internal mappers to gather different attributes from third-party references to extend the accuracy and reliability of the vFeed.db Vulnerability Database Community.
CVE and Compatibility Documentation<CR_4.1>
Provide a copy, or directions to its location, of where your documentation describes CVE and CVE compatibility for your customers (required):
https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed/wiki/1-vFeed-Framework-Concept
Documentation of Finding Elements Using CVE Names <CR_4.2>
Provide a copy, or directions to its location, of where your documentation describes the specific details of how your customers can use CVE names to find the individual security elements within your capability’s repository (required):
The correlated vulnerability database vFeed.db comes with a set of python API methods that help to query CVE identifiers within the database.Users can leverage different methods as described in our documentation at https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed/wiki/3-vFeed-methods.
- The search method queries quickly the database and returns an excerpt of the description and relevant information such as existence of exploits.
#python vfeedcli.py search CVE-2014-0160

Documentation of Finding CVE Names Using Elements <CR_4.3>
Provide a copy, or directions to its location, of where your documentation describes the process a user would follow to find the CVE names associated with individual security elements within your capability’s repository (required):
CVE ID alongside all attributes and elements are displayed using vFeed built-in functions or within pre-formatted vFeed proprietary XML format.As described in section CR_4.2, vFeed uses different python APIs such as get_cve or search to display CVE information.
The export function can as well be leveraged to document a CVE Identifier as XML export. The XML file is a proprietary format of ToolsWatch.org.

Documentation Indexing of CVE-Related Material <CR_4.4>
If your documentation includes an index, provide a copy of the items and resources that you have listed under "CVE" in your index. Alternately, provide directions to where these "CVE" items are posted on your web site (recommended):
A good example to illustrate this case can be the search for the CPE associated CVE Identifiers.By leveraging the search function, we may be able to achieve such task. Note that the vFeed documentation wiki explains in details the functions and their syntaxes.

Finding CVE Names Using Elements in Reports <CR_A.2.2>
Give detailed examples and explanations of how, for reports that identify individual security elements, the tool allows the user to determine the associated CVE names for the individual security elements in the report (required):
We provide a set of python API methods to explore the SQLite vFeed.db Vulnerability Database Community. The methods are explained in the online documentation wiki at https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed/wiki/2-Usage.
We wrapped up as well all these functions into an export method that generates a vFeed proprietary XML. The XML describes the CVE with associated third party attributes as CPE, CWE, CVSS, OVAL identifiers, Nessus scripts, metasploit exploits, multiple patches information, and so on. The full list of methods is documented here (under vFeed Methods Page) at https://github.com/toolswatch/vFeed/wiki/3-vFeed-methods.
Running the command line vFeed Python API gives as well indication on how to explore the database.

----------
[usage 2]: python ./vfeedcli.py export <CVE>
[info]: This method will export the CVE as vFeed XML format
----------
[usage 3]: python ./vfeedcli.py search <CVE> | <CPE>
[info]: This method searches for CVE or CPE. It returns useful information that will help you dig deeper.
For example, getting the list the associated CWEs will be achieved through get_cwe method as depicted below:
#python vfeedcli.py get_cwe cve-2014-0160
-------
[cwe_id]: CWE-119
[cwe_title]: Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer
One of the added values of vFeed is the proprietary XML format. It can be leveraged using the export function. The export method will craft a special XML file with all attributes around a CVE ranging from scores, weaknesses, patches to scanning, exploitation and defenses scripts.
Here is a pre-generated export for the well-known SSL Heartbleed vulnerability aka CVE-2014-0160 at http://toolswatch.org/vfeed/CVE_2014_0160.xml.
Users can as well rely on the search method to list information about a CVE.
#python vfeedcli.py search cve-2014-0160
[+] Querying information for CVE-2014-0160 ...
[-] The (1) TLS and (2) DTLS implementations in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1g do not properly handle Heartbeat Extension packets, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via crafted packets that trigger a buffer over-read, as demonstrated by reading private keys, related to d1_both.c and t1_lib.c, aka the Heartbleed bug.
