AVE v1.0.0 — Release notes

Date: 2026-06-18 Tag: v1.0.0 Schema: ave-record-1.0.0.schema.json Registry: https://ave.bawbel.io Repo: https://github.com/bawbel/ave


The first stable release of the AVE standard

AVE (Agentic Vulnerability Enumeration) is an open behavioral vulnerability standard for agentic AI components — skill files, MCP servers, plugins, and agent tools. v1.0.0 is the first production-ready release: canonical schema, 48 published records, a public registry, crosswalks to the tools the field already uses, and a complete governance structure for the open-source community.


Records

48 records published. The full record set covers attack classes from prompt injection and credential exfiltration through rug-pull, cross-app escalation, MCP tool hook hijacking, and unsafe agent delegation chains.

Severity Count
CRITICAL 1
HIGH 6
MEDIUM 39
LOW 2

GitHub templates updated:

  • Pull request template — v1.0.0 schema, fixture requirement, no stale SPEC.md refs
  • ave_submission issue template — issue-first workflow, variant vs new class check
  • ave_false_positive, ave_schema_change, ave_bug_report issue templates

Fixture and test infrastructure

tests/fixtures/ and rules/ are the intended locations for detection rules and positive/negative test fixtures per record. The test runner design is documented in the codebase (tests/test_fixtures.py pattern using pytest parametrize over fixture pairs). Fixtures for the 48 records will be added in v1.1 alongside the schema migration.
