# Verify that the scheduled job for updating CWE records is running

# Verify that the scheduled job for updating CWE records is running {#ariaid-title1}

* Release version: Australia

Use Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) records downloaded from the CWE database for
reference when deciding whether a vulnerability must be escalated. Update common weakness
records from the Common Weakness Enumeration database on a regularly scheduled basis. You
can also update the default script or write your own scripts, as needed.

## Before you begin

Role required: App-Sec Manager group

Each CWE record also includes an associated
knowledge article that describes the weakness.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllApplication Vulnerability ResponseAdministrationIntegrations.
2. Select the CWE Comprehensive 2000 Integration scheduled job.
3. Verify that the Active check box is selected.  
   Note:  
   The settings in this form are shared by Vulnerability Response and Application Vulnerability Response. Modifying the integration settings requires coordination with and expertise in Vulnerability Response and ServiceNow.
4. If the box is selected, you are done.  
   Note:  
   If the box is not selected, this integration may need to be configured within Vulnerability Response. See [Importing data with the NVD and CWE integrations and managing third-party libraries](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/SDp7vDWErXHrLtUOsZ_~qw "If not already installed, download and run the NVD integration and run the CWE scheduled job as part of your initial setup of Vulnerability Response and prior to importing vulnerability data into your instance with a third-party scanner product. The Vulnerability Response Integration with NVD is available on the ServiceNow Store.") for more information before selecting it.  
   As needed, see [View vulnerability libraries](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/IZq57UW~KW0S4rDI9HTfsQ "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.") to see the imported entries.

   The Primary CWE field contains the
   CWE entry. If there is more than one CWE is associated with a vulnerability,
   see [Application Vulnerability fields](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/uEdT59Vi2icUdYvPSpbUHA "Vulnerabilities are created automatically when records are downloaded from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) or third-party integrations. NVD and CWE are stored under Libraries in Vulnerability Response or under Vulnerabilities in Application Vulnerability Response.") for
   information on how the primary CWE is determined.
