# 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 for a given package and returns active CVEs, GHSA advisories, and patched version recommendations.

## 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-f62ee280
```

Example prompt: Can you check if the PyPI package 'requests' has any known CVEs or GHSA security advisories right now, and tell me which version I should upgrade to?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time, live vulnerability data for open-source packages across PyPI, npm, Go, or Rust ecosystems, particularly when you need CVE and GHSA advisory IDs and patched version recommendations. Prefer this over static SBOM scanners or cached databases when freshness matters — e.g. for CI/CD gates, security reviews, or agent-driven dependency audits.

## Known failure modes

- Package not found in OSV.dev — returns empty or no-match response
- Invalid package identifier format — returns validation error
- OSV.dev upstream timeout — service may return error or degraded response
- Ecosystem prefix missing or misspelled — may return incorrect or no results
- Package has no known vulnerabilities — returns clean/empty advisory list

## 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/cve-lookup)

## Output

Returns a structured object listing all active CVEs and GHSA advisories affecting the specified package, including vulnerability IDs, severity ratings, affected version ranges, and recommended patched versions sourced live from Google OSV.dev.
