✅ batch validate

CVSS v3.0CVSS v3.1text output

Synopsis

cvss batch validate reads one CVSS vector per line from a file (or stdin) and validates them in parallel. Each line prints PASS Line N: <vector> or FAIL Line N: <vector> followed by the per-line error reasons. The command exits 1 if any line failed, making it a CI gate.

batch is the parent command for batch operations; validate is its validation subcommand (the sibling is batch score).

How It Works

Input lines are fanned out to a worker pool that validates each vector in parallel; each line prints PASS or FAIL with its reasons, and the command exits 1 if any line failed.

Usage

cvss batch validate [file] [flags]

Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--workers int	4	number of parallel workers
-h, --help	—	help for validate

No --format flag

Unlike batch score, batch validate has no --format json flag — it always prints PASS/FAIL text lines.

Examples

Validate a file of vectors

cat > vectors.txt <<'EOF'
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
CVSS:3.1/AV:N
EOF
cvss batch validate vectors.txt

From stdin

cat vectors.txt | cvss batch validate -

Exit code is the gate

Exit 0 means every line validated; exit 1 means at least one line failed. Use cvss batch validate vectors.txt && deploy to gate a pipeline on vector validity.

Underlying API

import "github.com/scagogogo/cvss-skills/pkg/parser"

lines := readLines("vectors.txt") // []string, one vector per line

results := parser.BatchValidate(lines, 4) // []BatchValidateResult
hasErrors := false
for _, r := range results {
    if r.Valid {
        fmt.Printf("PASS Line %d: %s\n", r.Index+1, lines[r.Index])
    } else {
        hasErrors = true
        fmt.Printf("FAIL Line %d: %s\n", r.Index+1, lines[r.Index])
        for _, e := range r.Errors {
            fmt.Printf("  - %s\n", e)
        }
    }
}
if hasErrors {
    os.Exit(1)
}

parser.BatchValidate(vectors []string, workerCount int) []BatchValidateResult validates the lines in parallel. Each result carries Index, Valid, and Errors (a []string of human-readable failure reasons).
