CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) are organizations from around the world that are authorized to assign CVE IDs to vulnerabilities affecting products within their distinct, agreed-upon scope, for inclusion in first-time public announcements of new vulnerabilities. These CVE IDs are provided to researchers, vulnerability disclosers, and information technology vendors.
Participation in this program is voluntary, and the benefits of participation include the ability to publicly disclose a vulnerability with an already assigned CVE ID, the ability to control the disclosure of vulnerability information without pre-publishing, and notification of vulnerabilities in products within a CNA's scope by researchers who request a CVE ID from them.
To review the products covered by each CNA, visit the Request a CVE ID page.
These videos and slides on the CNA Onboarding Guidance playlist on the CVE Program Channel on YouTube should be reviewed by new CNAs in the order presented below prior to your onboarding meeting with the CNA Coordination Team.

Fill in the form.
NOTE: “Link to the advisory” and “CVE IDs of vulnerabilities to be published” fields are required.
The assignment information (in Flat File, CSV, or JSON format) should be entered in the “Additional information and CVE ID description updates” field.
NOTE: Alternatively, you can send the CVE Record information as a file attachment in a reply to an email message generated by CVE’s ticketing system when the submission has been received.
Enter the security code.
