TL;DR​

• Vulnerability Intelligence runs Trivy on your Mac via Desktop, enriches with NVD + CISA KEV + EPSS, and buckets every CVE into exploit priority / patch today / defer — each row includes a plain-English reason.
• On our own bases (June 2026 scans): python:3.13-slim has 46 unique CVEs and 0 patch-today rows under balanced ( 2 under permissive_patches ); node:20-slim has 97 unique CVEs and 29 patch-today rows — same scanner, different nightly workload.
• Built for security and platform teams who already have Trivy output and need shared rules across client images, not another dashboard that dumps CVSS-sorted noise.

Picture Monday after a base-image rebuild. Trivy finished overnight. The spreadsheet has 103 rows before anyone's had coffee. That's the moment this post is about — not picking Wiz over Snyk, but agreeing what actually patches tonight.

In April we open-sourced an MCP server that combines NIST NVD, CISA KEV, and EPSS into a composite risk score. That solved ranking — why a CVSS 5.0 in active ransomware campaigns should beat a CVSS 9.8 nobody is exploiting.

The next bottleneck is operations: your scanner still dumps hundreds of rows, and every team reinvents spreadsheet triage. Paste-JSON workflows do not scale when you run ten client images a week.

We shipped a hosted path that closes the loop: Desktop runs Trivy on your machine, the cloud enriches findings, and scan_triage buckets every CVE with a bucket_reason you can tune via policy presets.

Try Vulnerability Intelligence on MCPBundles — or keep reading for the bucketing rules and real numbers from our own Dockerfiles.

Your vulnerability scanner dumps 200 CVEs. You sort by CVSS score. The CVSS 9.8 at the top gets your attention. You patch it first.

Meanwhile, a CVSS 5.0 three pages down is in active ransomware campaigns. CISA added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog last week. EPSS gives it an 80% exploitation probability. Nobody looked at it because it was page three.

CVSS tells you how bad a vulnerability could be. It says nothing about whether anyone is actually exploiting it. For that, you need two more data sources — and nobody combines all three in one place.

Until now. vulnerability-intelligence-mcp is an open-source MCP server that pulls from NIST NVD, CISA KEV, and FIRST.org EPSS, computes a composite risk score, and gives your AI 30 tools for CVE analysis, watchlist tracking, and scanner triage.
