Format CVE using Regex

I've ran a search and one of my columns in my table references CVE IDs. However, CVE IDs in that column are not in the correct CVE ID format (i.e. CVE-XXXX-XXX). My question is, is there a way to format this column using regex to put the CVE ID's in there correct format? I have provided a screen shot below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@carldipace,

CVE-ID format is CVE-YEAR-Arbitrary Digits

So in your case

eval reference_cve="CVE-".reference_cve should work

What goes around comes around. If it helps, hit it with Karma 🙂
