Obtain a CVE Identifier

To reserve a CVE Identifier before publicizing a new vulnerability, vulnerability researchers may contact cve@mitre.org and we will provide you with our "CVE ID Reservation Guidelines for Researchers" document. We will then work with you to assign a CVE Identifier for the issue while you work through the process of publicly disclosing the vulnerability. Or, you may contact a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA).

CVE Entry reservation allows researchers to include CVE Identifiers in the initial public announcement of the vulnerability, and ensures that the CVE Identifier is instantly available to all CVE users and makes it easier to track vulnerabilities over time.

Please review the Researcher Responsibilities.
