Check CVE Details

Look up detailed information about specific CVEs including severity, affected versions, exploit availability, and patches.

Quick answer: Use the Vulnerability Database tool through ToolRouter to check cve details directly from Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw — connect once, then drive it with plain-language prompts. No code required.

Tool

Vulnerability Database

When a CVE appears in a security advisory, scan result, or news article, you need the full picture to assess your risk. The cve_details skill retrieves comprehensive information about a specific CVE: the vulnerability description, CVSS score, affected product versions, exploit availability, patch status, and references to advisories.

This is essential for incident response and triage. When your scanner flags a CVE, you need to quickly understand how severe it is, whether your version is affected, whether there is a public exploit, and what the fix is. Having all this in one lookup accelerates triage from hours to minutes.

How to check cve details with Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and OpenClaw

When a CVE lands in your inbox, Claude can instantly pull the full record and walk you through the CVSS vector breakdown, compare it against similar past vulnerabilities, and assess whether your specific version and configuration are actually in the blast radius. Ask follow-up questions to drill into exploit availability or vendor response timelines.

How to check cve details with Claude

Once connected (see setup above), use the Vulnerability Database tool:

Ask Claude: "Look up CVE-2024-3094 using vulnerability-database"
Claude returns the full CVE record with severity, affected versions, and fix info
Ask Claude to assess whether your specific deployment is affected

Example prompt for Claude

Try this with Claude using the Vulnerability Database tool

Get the full details for CVE-2024-3094. I need to understand the severity, affected versions, and whether there is a patch available.

Tips for Claude

Ask Claude to assess whether the CVE affects your specific deployment configuration
Request a plain-language summary suitable for non-technical stakeholders
Check for related CVEs that might indicate a broader issue in the same software

ChatGPT turns dense CVE records into plain-English briefings anyone on your team can understand. Paste a CVE ID and get a clear explanation of what the vulnerability does, who is affected, and what the fix looks like -- formatted so you can share it directly with engineering leadership or drop it into an incident response channel.

What are the full details for CVE-2024-3094? Explain the vulnerability, severity, affected versions, and remediation steps.

Tips for ChatGPT

ChatGPT can explain complex CVEs in accessible language for different audiences
Ask whether a specific workaround is effective if a patch is not yet available
Request a timeline of disclosure, patch, and public exploit availability

Copilot lets you look up CVE details without leaving your editor, so you can check whether a flagged vulnerability affects the exact dependency version in your lockfile. It cross-references the CVE record against your project context and can immediately suggest the dependency update needed to resolve it.

How to check cve details with Copilot

Once connected (see setup above), use the Vulnerability Database tool:

In Copilot Chat: "Look up CVE-2024-3094 using vulnerability-database"
Copilot returns the full CVE record with affected versions
Ask: "Does this CVE affect the dependencies in my project?"

Example prompt for Copilot

Try this with Copilot using the Vulnerability Database tool

Get details for CVE-2024-3094. Check if any of my project dependencies are affected.

Tips for Copilot

Copilot can cross-reference CVEs against your project dependencies
Look up CVEs flagged by your security scanner for context and fix instructions
Add CVE references to commit messages when fixing vulnerabilities for audit trails

OpenClaw can process a list of CVE IDs from your scanner output in bulk, fetch the full details for each, and compile a structured triage document with severity, affected versions, and patch availability. Ideal for automating the intake step of your vulnerability management workflow.
