# Real-Time Open-Source Package CVE & GHSA Vulnerability Scanner (OSV.dev)

> Real-Time Open-Source Package CVE & GHSA Vulnerability Scanner (OSV.dev) is a paid API for AI agents from preflight.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.015/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Queries Google OSV.dev in real time to return active CVEs, GHSA advisories, and patched versions for a given PyPI, npm, Go, or Rust crate package.

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 preflight-agentdiet-dev-real-time-open-source-package-cve-ghsa-8b4a32ef
```

Example prompt: Check if the npm package lodash has any active CVEs or GHSA security advisories, and let me know which version fixes the issues.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, live CVE and GHSA vulnerability data for open-source packages across PyPI, npm, Go modules, or Rust crates from the authoritative Google OSV.dev database. Prefer it over static NVD lookups or cached advisory feeds when freshness matters — e.g., in CI/CD pipelines, pre-deployment audits, or agent-driven dependency vetting workflows. It is especially useful when you need patched version recommendations alongside the advisory list.

## Known failure modes

- Package not found in the specified ecosystem — returns empty advisory list or 404-style response
- Invalid package identifier format (e.g. unsupported ecosystem prefix) — returns validation error
- OSV.dev upstream timeout or outage — may return service unavailable error
- Ambiguous package name without ecosystem prefix may resolve to wrong registry
- No vulnerabilities found is a valid success response, not an error — agent must distinguish empty from failure

## How this service works

Queries live Google OSV.dev vulnerability intelligence for any PyPI, npm, Go, or Rust crate and returns active CVEs, GHSA advisories, and patched versions. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://preflight.agentdiet.dev/v1/pypi-vuln-scan)

## Output

Returns a structured object containing all active CVE and GHSA vulnerability advisories found for the queried package, including vulnerability IDs, severity ratings, affected version ranges, patched/fixed versions, and summary descriptions sourced live from Google OSV.dev.
