# View Vulnerability Response vulnerability libraries

You can view vulnerability data imported from the National Vulnerability Database \(NVD\), Common Weakness Enumeration \(CWE\), or third-parties to decide whether to escalate a remediation task.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_vul.remediation\_owner

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Vulnerability Response** > **Libraries**.

    For information on specific fields, see [Vulnerability Response vulnerability form fields](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/vulnerability-response/vulnerability-fields.md).

    The following libraries are available:

<table id="table_hwd_bxl_dbb"><thead><tr><th>

Libraries

</th><th>

Description

</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>

NVD

</td><td>

List of vulnerabilities found by NVD and includes security checklists, security-related software flaws, misconfigurations, product names, and impact metrics including exploits.

</td></tr><tr><td>

CWE

</td><td>

List of community-developed software weakness types.

 Each CWE record also includes an associated knowledge article that describes the weakness. You cannot escalate a vulnerability from the Common Weakness Enumerations screen, it is for reference only.

</td></tr><tr><td>

Third-party

</td><td>

List of imported third-party vulnerabilities in your instance. Contains a list of related references, vulnerable items, exploits, and CVEs.

</td></tr></tbody>
</table>2.  Choose a library to view vulnerabilities.

3.  Click a link in the list to open a record.

    A CVE record in the National Vulnerabilities Database Entries library. More information is available in the **Related Links**. After a data import, you can pick a vulnerability and explore its relationships to vulnerable items, exploits, possible solutions, potential patches, and any references to KB Articles in the HI Knowledge Base. If [Vulnerability Solution Management](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/vulnerability-response/vuln-solution-mgmt.md) is installed, you can view a preferred solution on NVD records if one is available.
