Not able to pull large datasets, tool hangs on running.

[kratintiwari]

cvemap version: v0.0.2

Current Behavior:

When I try to run this command
cvemap -poc=true -kev=false -epk -field cwe,product,poc -json > cvemap_output.json
It just keeps running and only deliver 99 results.

Expected Behavior:

It should give me all the expected as shown in the terminal which is 96288 cve records in json.

Steps To Reproduce:

Example: steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run cvemap -poc=true -kev=false -epk -field cwe,product,poc -json > cvemap_output.json
2. It would fetch the results but it keeps running

Anything else:

I can't describe with a screenshot as the tool works fine although the desired result set is not being delivered by the tool.

@kratintiwari you are using interactive mode by using -epk option that requires you to manually navigate the results, it's not hanging, instead you are using interactive mode.

   -epk, -enable-page-keys  enable page keys to navigate results

about result count, as default 50 results are pulled from api and can be increased upto 100 per response, later you can use -epk option to navigate the results for further pages.

   -l, -limit int  limit the number of results to display (default 50)

Just to mention, this CLI helps you navigate through CVE data and not dump all the data at once.

@ehsandeep
Thank for the response.
Although my ask is the same, if I want to curate all of the json data for CVEs that have poc and are not in CISA KEV in a single file, can I do that with this tool ?

[ehsandeep]

it's not possible at the moment, but should be possible to support in future updates.

[kratintiwari]

Is there a work around that you could suggest to get that type of data?

Thanks again for clarifying.

Also can I get the poc url in interactive form (-epk) ? I can see the poc object has attribute url which is displayed in json although wanted to know if I can see that in the tabular format when we use -epk

Thanks
