MITRE | SOLVING PROBLEMS FOR A SAFER WORLD" April 15, 2025 Dear CVE Board Member, We want to make you aware of an important potential issue with MITRE’s enduring support to CVE. On Wednesday, April 16, 2025, the current contracting pathway for MITRE to develop, operate, and modernize CVE and several other related programs, such as CWE, wil expire. The government continues to make considerable efforts to continue MITRE’ role in support of the program If a break in service were to occur, we anticipate multiple impacts to CVE, including deterioration of national vulnerability databases and advisories, tool vendors, incident response operations, and all manner of critical infrastructure. MITRE continues to be committed to CVE as a global resource. We thank you as a member of the CVE Board for your continued partnership. Sincerely, Yosry Barsoum VP and Director Center for Securing the Homeland (CSH) 7515 Colshire Drive ® McLean, VA 22102-7539 ® (703) 983-6000
