Cve Search_mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for querying the CVE-Search API
Overview
CVE-Search MCP is a Model Context Protocol server designed for querying the CVE-Search API, providing comprehensive access to CVE data including vendor and product information, CVE details by ID, and the latest CVEs.
To use CVE-Search MCP, clone the repository from GitHub, install the necessary dependencies, and configure your MCP client to point to the server's directory.
- Access to a JSON of all vendors and their associated products. - Retrieve vulnerabilities for specific vendors and products. - Get detailed information for specific CVE IDs. - Access the latest 30 CVEs with CAPEC, CWE, and CPE expansions. - Information about the current databases in use and their last updated times.
- Security researchers can query vulnerabilities associated with specific products.
- Developers can integrate CVE data into their applications for enhanced security.
- Organizations can monitor the latest vulnerabilities affecting their software stack.

Use these steps to connect Cve Search_mcp in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.
Cursor
Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cve-search-mcp-roadwy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-cve-search-mcp-roadwy"
]
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
{

"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-cve-search-mcp-roadwy"
]
}
}
}Claude Code
Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.
.mcp.json (project root)
{
"mcpServers": {
