Description

The CVE to CPE Converter is a Python application developed to automatically generate CPE (Common Platform Enumeration) records from CVE descriptions using big language model (LLM). This project is designed to facilitate the management of security vulnerabilities by easily and quickly converting CVE information into a standardized CPE format.

Features

• Up-to-Date CVE Data: Processes daily updated CVE data.
• CPE Conversion: Generates CPE records from CVE descriptions.
• Data Storage: Stores data in local daily JSON files.
• Ollama Integration: Utilizes Ollama for processing CVE and CPE data.
• Streamlit Application: Provides a web-based interface.
