Is there an API for the Amazon Linux Security Center (alas.aws.amazon.com)?

0

I would like to pull CVSS scoring info for particular CVEs from alas.aws.amazon.com. I see endpoints like https://alas.aws.amazon.com/cve/html/CVE-2023-25751.html, and am wondering if a /json or /xml or similar endpoint exists. I've searched documentation, tried calling those directly, and looked through network traffic but don't see any requests that indicate those exist. Is there an API for this site (or another resource I'm not aware of), or do I need to parse the HTML to get that CVSS data?

alas.aws.amazon.com does not provide an official API for accessing CVSS scoring information for CVEs in JSON, XML, or other structured formats. However, there are alternative sources you can use to obtain CVSS scores for specific CVEs.

One option is to use the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) API, which is maintained by the U.S. government. The NVD API provides CVSS scores and other vulnerability information in JSON format. You can query the NVD API for a specific CVE like this:

https://services.nvd.nist.gov/rest/json/cve/1.0/CVE-2023-25751

Hello,

Greetings of the day!! Thank you for contacting AWS.

I understand that you wish to know if there are any APIs you can use to retrieve CVSS scoring info for particular CVEs from alas.aws.amazon.com. in the form of JSON, XML.

To answer your query, unfortunately there are no APIs that you can use to gather data from the ALAS website. The APIs that AWS provides are specific to services which are used for management and data plane operations specific to your AWS Account. You would have to use conventional tools such as scrapers to gather information from publicly hosted websites.

For more information regarding deploying a Server-less Architecture for a Web Scraping Solution on AWS, kindly refer the [document](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/architecture/serverless-architecture-for-a-web-scraping-solution/)

Hope the above information has been helpful.

Thank you and Wish you a good day ahead!
