Vulnerability Processing

SLA Target

The Vulnerability Moderation Team aims at the following SLA for processing new vulnerabilities and moderate commits for existing entries:

  • New Entries: Coverage after technical confirmation within 48 hours after a CVE with product information is assigned and/or within 24 hours after we have received a vulnerability/exploit as a submission.
  • User Submits: Enterprise customers have an high priority queue access at on the web site which will be handled within 4 business hours.
  • Core Data Assessment: Assignment of details like vendor/product (CPE), vulnerability class (CWE) risk scoring (CVSS) is done within 60 minutes of the initial disclosure of a new VulDB entry.
The delays mentioned are needed to guarantee the expected level of quality (e.g. prevent duplicates, identify false-positives, determine malicious exploits, etc.).

Usual Processing

In most cases processing of vulnerability information is much faster for all subscription levels:

  • New Entries: 1-4 hours*
  • User Submits: 10-45 min*
  • Core Data Assessment: 5-30 min*
You are able to verify the timing behaviour of vulnerability data processing in real-time on different overview pages (e.g. Submits, Recent and Updates in Live views), commit histories, and vulnerability timelines for specific entries on the web site.

  • Commit Moderation: 1-4 hours*
  • Post Moderation: 1-4 hours*

Usual Processing
