In the field of cybersecurity, CVE stands for “Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures”. CVE is a dictionary of publicly known cybersecurity vulnerabilities and exposures that are identified, named and tracked by the CVE program. The purpose of CVE is to provide a standardized naming convention and a centralized database of vulnerabilities found in software and hardware systems.

The CVE system is maintained by the MITRE Corporation, a nonprofit organization that operates research and development centers for the US government.
