Accessing and managing CrowdStrike Falcon Spotlight vulnerabilities

  • Vulnerabilities: READ

Required scopes: Vulnerabilities: READ

Search for vulnerabilities in your CrowdStrike environment.

Use this to find vulnerabilities by CVE severity, status, host, or remediation state. Consult falcon://spotlight/vulnerabilities/fql-guide before constructing filter expressions. Returns vulnerability details including CVE info, host context, and remediation guidance (based on facet selection). Responses include pagination.total (the total number of records matching the filter, or null when the API does not report a count) — use it to answer “how many” questions. For cursor-based paging, use pagination.next as the after parameter on the next call.

Example prompts:

  • “Show me open HIGH severity vulnerabilities”
  • “Find vulnerabilities on host xyz”
  • falcon://spotlight/vulnerabilities/fql-guide: Contains the guide for the filter param of the falcon_search_vulnerabilities tool.
