It takes a CVSS vector string\u2014a standardized notation that encodes vulnerability characteristics like attack vector, complexity, and impact\u2014and computes the corresponding numeric score (0\u201310) and severity rating (e.g., 'Critical', 'High', 'Medium'). The library includes both a programmatic API for scripting and an interactive command-line calculator for manual scoring.\n\nThe package has no runtime dependencies and is tested across modern Python versions (3.6 through 3.13). It is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it suitable for integration into security tools, vulnerability databases, and assessment workflows where standardized severity ratings are needed.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is stable, dependency-free, and fills a clear need for standardized vulnerability scoring. The copyleft license is a minor consideration only if you plan to redistribute modified code. The aging maintenance status (375 days since last release) is not a blocker for a mature, narrow-scope library, but verify that the v2/v3/v4 standards it implements match your current security requirements."},"id":"cvss","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cvss","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cvss.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/cvss/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-08-04","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"copyleft","name":"cvss","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"CVSS2/3/4 library with interactive calculator for Python 2 and Python 3"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1996234,"position":3375,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.6"}
