The U.S. government has resumed funding for MITRE's activities related to maintaining the CVE database. The contract has been extended for 11 months. Despite this, members of the CVE Board announced the establishment of a nonprofit organization, the CVE Foundation, aimed at ensuring the stable operation and independence of the CVE project.
It has been noted that concerns about the sustainability and neutrality of the service used worldwide, which is entirely dependent on government funding, have long been discussed in the CVE project's governing board. Over the past year, a coalition of active members of the CVE board has been developing a strategy to transfer CVE into an independent nonprofit foundation focused exclusively on continuing the mission of identifying vulnerabilities and maintaining the availability of CVE data.
