0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

CVEDetails.com is a comprehensive vulnerability intelligence platform powered by SecurityScorecard, offering an extensive CVE database enriched with advisories, exploits, risk scores, and attack surface intelligence. The platform targets security professionals and enterprises seeking detailed vulnerability data and actionable insights. It provides advanced features such as email alerts, APIs, and SBOM analysis to enhance vulnerability management workflows. Technically, the website employs modern web technologies including jQuery, Bootstrap, and ECharts, delivering a responsive and user-friendly experience with good SEO and accessibility standards. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and secure form handling but lacks explicit security headers and dedicated incident response pages, which are recommended for improvement. The absence of WHOIS registration data introduces some uncertainty about domain legitimacy, though the strong association with SecurityScorecard and professional content supports trust. Overall, CVEDetails.com is a high-quality, trustworthy resource for vulnerability intelligence with room for enhanced security transparency and domain registration clarity.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing Content-Security-Policy header

      Controls resources the browser is allowed to load

      What to do: Implement a Content-Security-Policy appropriate for your application

      • ASVS V3.4.3
      • OWASP Secure Headers: OWASP Secure Headers Project recommends Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; form-action 'self'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none';…
  2. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

The platform operates within the cybersecurity technology sector, positioned as an important service for vulnerability intelligence and risk management. Its business model revolves around providing detailed CVE data and related security insights, likely monetized through premium services, APIs, and integration capabilities. The target customers include security teams, vulnerability analysts, and enterprises requiring comprehensive vulnerability tracking. The close relationship with SecurityScorecard enhances its market credibility and access to a broad customer base. The website's content and features indicate a mature product with a strong focus on user efficiency and comprehensive data aggregation, positioning it competitively in the vulnerability intelligence market.

Security posture

CVEDetails.com demonstrates a solid security posture with HTTPS enforcement and secure input handling. However, the lack of visible security headers such as Content-Security-Policy and absence of published incident response or security policy pages represent gaps in transparency and defense-in-depth. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. The cookie consent mechanism aligns with privacy best practices. The missing WHOIS data is a concern for domain legitimacy verification but does not directly impact site security. Enhancing security headers and publishing clear security policies would strengthen the platform's security maturity and user trust.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  2. Publish dedicated security policy and incident response pages with clear contact channels.
  3. Consider deploying and publishing a security.txt file to facilitate vulnerability disclosure.
  4. Verify and update WHOIS registration details to ensure domain legitimacy and transparency.
  5. Regularly audit third-party scripts and dependencies to mitigate potential vulnerabilities.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses a modern and robust technology stack featuring jQuery, Bootstrap, ECharts for data visualization, and FontAwesome for icons, ensuring a responsive and interactive user experience. The site is mobile-optimized with good accessibility and SEO practices. Performance is moderate, likely due to the use of multiple external libraries and rich interactive content. No CMS was detected, suggesting a custom or proprietary platform. Hosting provider details are not evident from the content. Opportunities exist to optimize performance further and enhance security configurations. Overall, the technical infrastructure supports the business goals effectively with room for incremental improvements.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
