Nevermind my comment - I'm pretty sure I know what's wrong.

You're using "threat:cvs" which makes that a string, and you want to match two fields..

Try using single quotes instead to have Splunk grab the values of that field instead.

 | eval match=case('threat:cve' = cs23,"Yes",'threat:cve' != cs23,"No")
