cvss-converter 0.1.2

A package to convert CVSSv2 to CVSSv3

cvss-converter

A python program to convert older cvss versions to more modern ones. Currently cvss-converter only provides cvssv2 to cvssv3 conversion, with strict mode by default.

Strict Mode

As there are a several fields which are either ambiguous or doesn't exist at all (e.g. Scope or User Interaction). During conversion, the logic will always choose the values of a vector that yields a higher CVSS score. We prefer to err on the side of caution than to assume that the vulnerability is not affected by the ambiguity. The conversion mapping chart in strict mode for ambiguous or missing vectors is as follows:

CVSSv2 Vector	CVSSv3.1 Vector
Attack Complexity (AC): "Medium"	Attack Complexity (AC): "Low"
Does not exist	Scope (S): "C"
Does not exist	User Interaction (UI): "N"

Please also note that for Attack Vector (AV), since there is no Physical value in CVSSv2, there is no conversion requirements to ever map a value to CVSSv3 AV:P.

How to use?

Install with Pip or Pipenv

Pip:

pip install cvss-converter

Pipenv:

pipenv install cvss-converter

Usage: Example

from cvss_converter.converter import cvss2_to_cvss3

cvssv2 = "AV:N/AC:H/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:C"
cvssv3, score = cvss2_to_cvss3(cvssv2)
print(f"CVSSv3 Vector: {cvssv3}, Base Score: {score}")

Expected output:

CVSSv3 Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:H, Base Score: 7.1

Future

• Add vector override
• Add option for standard mode (non-strict)
