CNA no CVE
As a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) we have to respect the CNA Rules which are defined by MITRE. These define what a vulnerability is and what requirements are neccessary to assign a CVE. Some submissions might not be eligeble to receive a CVE or their reserved CVE might be revokes for various reasons (e.g. false-positive).
Remediation
Vendors and researchers are eager to find countermeasures to mitigate security vulnerabilities. These can be distinguished between multiple forms and levels of remediation which influence risks differently.
Exploitability
Researcher and attacker which are looking for security vulnerabilities try to exploit them for academic purposes or personal gain. The level and quality of exploitability can be distinguished to determine simplicity and strength of attacks.
VulDB
Our moderation team is always defining realistic the base vector and base score for an entry. These and all other available scores are used to generate the aggregated meta score.
Exploit 0-day
The moderation team is working with the threat intelligence team to determine prices for exploits. Our unique algorithm is used to identify the 0-day prices for an exploit, before it got distributed or became public. Calculated prices are aligned to prices disclosed by vulnerability broker and compared to prices we see on exploit markets.
