💖 CVSS_CALCULATOR 💖

okay bestie, so cvss_calculator is a User Commands situation, section 1, and it's literally the tool that does the math so you don't have to. no cap. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

cvss_calculator — calculate Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) metrics 🌸

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

here's the vibe, the usage line, verbatim:

cvss_calculator [-h] [-2] [-3] [-4] [-a] [-v VECTOR] [-n] [-j]

so the way this works is: it Computes CVSS2/3 score either supplied on command line or interactively. 🎀

and by default? it only takes mandatory metrics and computes CVSS3.1. that's the default main character energy. ✨

🌈 options: 🌈

  • -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic. the icon. 🫶
  • -2 — compute CVSS2 (default 3.1) 👑
  • -3 — compute CVSS3.0 (default 3.1) 💜
  • -4 — compute CVSS4.0 (default 3.1) 🔥
  • -a, --all — ask for all metrics. not just the mandatory ones, all of them. go off. 💅
  • -v, --vector _VECTOR_ — input string with CVSS vector. drop the vector right there on the command line, iykyk. 🦋
  • -n, --no-colors — do not use terminal coloring. for when the rainbow is Too Much (understandable honestly). 🌸
  • -j, --json — output vector in JSON format. for all my machine-readable besties. ✨
lowkey reminder: every single one of those defaults is 3.1 unless you say otherwise. -2, -3, -4 are how you switch it up. 🎀

okay that's the whole page!! no notes, ate, periodt. 💖
