Beyond CVEs: Mastering the Landscape with Vulnerability-Lookup

We had the pleasure of presenting at FIRST.org 2025, showcasing the Vulnerability-Lookup and GCVE.eu initiatives.

Although CVEs are a cornerstone of vulnerability management, they often provide an incomplete view of the security landscape. Vulnerability-Lookup, a new open-source project developed by CIRCL, addresses this limitation by offering a comprehensive and enriched vulnerability intelligence platform that goes beyond basic CVE data.

The platform aggregates and correlates information from diverse sources, including exploit databases, vulnerability scanners, product advisories, and community contributions. This integration delivers a more complete picture of vulnerability threats. We demonstrate how this enhanced level of detail empowers security professionals to move beyond simple patch management and adopt proactive, actionable, risk-based strategies.
