About

CMake is an open-source, cross-platform family of tools designed to build, test and package software.

CMake is used to control the software compilation process using simple platform and compiler independent configuration files, and generate native makefiles and workspaces that can be used in the compiler environment of your choice.

Installers · v4.3.3

Architecture	Type	Scope	Download
x86	MSI WiX	machine	Direct
x64	MSI WiX	machine	Direct
arm64	MSI WiX	machine	Direct

Copy a command tailored to that specific architecture, type, and scope - useful when winget would otherwise pick a different default.

Security

No known CVEs for CMake.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
