CISA’s Support for MITRE CVE, CWE programs Extended. 

Contract extension by CISA for MITRE CVE, CWE program prevents shutdown providing sign of relief for Cybersecurity community.

The CVE Program is the primary way software vulnerabilities are tracked maintained by MITRE. Recently the contract between MITRE, a non-profit research and development group including  the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to operate the CVE program, was about to expire on April 16, 2025, with no renewal in place.

This created panic in cyber security world as the CVE Program was about  to expire. The United States Cyber security and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), stepped in during the last minute and renewed its funding for the software-vulnerability-tracking project known as the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Program(CVE).

CISA ensured that the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) and Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) programs did not lapse.

Renewal of Contract with MITRE & Last Minute Rescue by CISA

‘The contract with MITRE is being extended for 11 months said a CISA’ spokesman..The importance of CVE Program is a focal point for cybersecurity program that is provides critical data and services for digital defense and research.

During the last minute when the contract was about to expire on tuesday night, the United States Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) renewed its funding for the longtime software-vulnerability-tracking project known as the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Program.

MITRE’s vice president and director of the Center for Securing the Homeland, Yosry Barsoum, said in a statement on Wednesday that “CISA identified incremental funding to keep the Programs operational.” With the clock ticking down before this decision came out, some members of the CVE Program’s board announced a plan to transition the project into new non profit entity called the CVE Foundation.

The CVE program is of prime importance for the entire cyber security community and CISA, the very reason for extending support so that there is no lapse in critical CVE services.

The extension will bring in a sense of security for cyber sec professionals, vendors, and government agencies worldwide can continue to rely on the CVE program for coordinated vulnerability tracking and response.

Since its inception, the CVE Program has operated as a US government-funded initiative, with oversight and management provided under contract. 

Over the years there has been doubt among members of the CVE Board about the sustainability and neutrality of a globally relied-upon resource being tied to a single government sponsor. The foundation has also written about its concern.

The cyber security community that includes researchers and cyber professionals were relieved on Wednesday, as the news flashed about the CVE Program hadn’t suddenly ceased to exist as the result of unprecedented instability in US federal funding.

Not only the US but every organization and every security tool is dependent on the CVE program and despite CISA’s last-minute funding, the future of the CVE Program is still unclear.

What makes the CVE program vital for cyber-security community?

Considering the importance of the CVE program, it should be fully funded to conduct job meant for its mission and well resourced.

On its 25th anniversary, the CVE Program continues playing vital role in global cybersecurity by identifying, defining, and cataloging publicly disclosed vulnerabilities. There is one CVE Record for each vulnerability in the catalog.

The vulnerabilities are discovered, then assigned and published by organizations globally that have partnered with the CVE Program

Lets wait for the 11 months contract funding that has been extended by CISA. Still the question remains about sustainability and neutrality of having a prominent globally recognized resource like CVE tied to a single government sponsor.
