2s CWE Security Weakness Lookup is a paid API for AI agents from 2s.io, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).
Looks up or searches Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) entries by ID or keyword from MITRE's authoritative database
Authoritative MITRE CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) lookup. Pass id (e.g. CWE-79, or just 79) for the canonical weakness — name, abstraction, description, extended description, ChildOf/ParentOf relationships (with names), and mapped CAPEC attack patterns (with names) — or query for a keyword search returning ranked matches. Bundled catalog (~970 weaknesses), zero external calls. Agents hallucinate CWE IDs and names constantly; this returns exact, citeable, version-pinned data. Pairs with security.cve (which returns CWE ids) and security.capec.
Returns a list of matching CWE items, each with an ID, full official name, and abstraction level (e.g. Base, Class, Variant), plus the total count and source attribution from MITRE CWE. Lookup mode returns exact match; keyword search returns multiple results.
GEThttps://2s.io/api/security/cwe?utm_source=zero.xyzUse this endpoint when you need authoritative, structured CWE data from MITRE — including exact weakness names, abstraction levels, and canonical IDs — either by direct ID lookup or keyword search. Prefer this over CVE-focused endpoints when the concern is about weakness categories rather than specific vulnerabilities.
