cvegen paints every cve published in a month into one poster, one month at a time since january 2025.

a cve is the public id a software flaw gets when it is disclosed. in 2025 about 4,013 came out a month. in september 2026 it was 14,934. a chart says that in a second and is forgotten as fast. a poster for each month lets the change be seen from across a room.
