# CVE Lookup via OSV.dev

> CVE Lookup via OSV.dev is a paid API for AI agents from relay402.georgespring.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Looks up a CVE identifier against OSV.dev and returns severity, summary, references, and a normalized risk report.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://relay402.georgespring.workers.dev/api/security-cve-lookup
- Price: $0.003/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-14

- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/cve-lookup-via-osv-dev-86f596f6
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_TAMLmNHP8vuaotxc9Sc7b

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability cve-lookup-via-osv-dev-86f596f6
```

Example prompt: Can you look up CVE-2024-12345 and tell me the severity, a summary of what it affects, and whether it's considered high risk?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to quickly assess a specific CVE by identifier — especially in automated pipelines like CI/CD security gates, dependency audits, or incident triage — and wants a normalized risk report rather than raw NVD JSON. Prefer it over scraping NVD directly when a structured, agent-ready response with risk normalization is needed at low per-call cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid CVE format (must match ^CVE-\d{4}-\d{4,}$) returns a validation error
- CVE not found in OSV.dev returns an empty or not-found response
- Network timeout or OSV.dev upstream unavailability causes a service error
- Payment failure via x402 protocol prevents the request from being processed

## How this service works

CVE lookup for agents: checks OSV.dev for a CVE identifier and returns severity, summary, references and a normalized risk report.

## Output

Returns a structured report including the CVE's severity rating (e.g. CVSS score/level), a plain-language summary of the vulnerability, a list of references (advisories, patches, NVD links), and a normalized risk assessment derived from OSV.dev data.
