|
||||
libraries in our applications that contain well known published vulnerabilities
|
||||
\(such as those at the [National Vulnerability Database](http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search)\).
|
||||
|
||||
Dependency-check scans directories and files and if it contains an Analyzer that
|
||||
can scan a particular file type then information from the file is collected. This
|
||||
information is then used to identify the [Common Platform Enumeration](http://nvd.nist.gov/cpe.cfm) \(CPE\). If a
|
||||
CPE is identified a listing of associated [Common Vulnerability and Exposure](http://cve.mitre.org/) \(CVE\)
|
||||
entries are listed in a report.

NIST. **The initial download of the data may take fifteen minutes
