Hi,

I am working one network security project. For that I need
vulnerabilities database fron NIST website. On NIST website they
provide vulnerabilities databse.

I want to develop a java program, so when user clicks on listener
download vulnerabilities database, it should dowload the database from
website. On NIST website it is in xml format.

And then I want to extract some data from it , and write onto database

can anyone suggest how can I do this?

Download the xml file using an URL class, then parse it into a DOM tree
where you can manipulate the data.
