Hi,

I would like to use the vector string to do some analysis
and prioritization of CVEs and have
found that the vector string is better than using the CVSS score. I would
argue that in
embedded contexts, the environment that a device is used in will result in
a different scoring
of the vector. The most easy example is a standalone device that does not
have any network
connections will likely prioritize physical over network attacks, which I
believe is opposite to
how the CVSS score is determined.

I would like for the vector string to be included in the outputs so it is
also cached. Post-build
tooling could use the NIST API to pull down the vector string, but I would
like to avoid hitting
the API for what I imagine are the same reasons caching is already done for
cve-check.

As others have noted in this thread, the NIST API has been rather
unreliable lately. I agree
that the fetch is likely what is failing the build, since I had to bump the
database filename to
refresh the contents with the correct vector string. I didn't
test_image_json locally, but I did
run builds that included fetching the nvd database and everything seemed to
have been
working.

Thanks,
Colin
