The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a technical standard for assessing the severity of vulnerabilities in computing systems. Scores are calculated based on a formula with several metrics that approximate ease and impact of an exploit. Scores range from 0 to 10, with 10 being the most severe.
In addition to providing a list of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), the NVD scores vulnerabilities using the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) [4] which is based on a set of equations using metrics such as access complexity and availability of a remedy. [5]
Logo. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system provides a reference method for publicly known information-security vulnerabilities and exposures. [1] The United States' National Cybersecurity FFRDC, operated by The MITRE Corporation, maintains the system, with funding from the US National Cyber Security Division of the US Department of Homeland Security.

The primary purpose of CVE, run by MITRE, is to attempt to aggregate public vulnerabilities and give them a standardized format unique identifier. [3] Many vulnerability databases develop the received intelligence from CVE and investigate further providing vulnerability risk scores, impact ratings, and the requisite workaround.
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) logo. The Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) is a category system for hardware and software weaknesses and vulnerabilities.It is sustained by a community project with the goals of understanding flaws in software and hardware and creating automated tools that can be used to identify, fix, and prevent those flaws.

Some of President-elect Donald Trump’s most vulnerable Cabinet picks are racing to smooth out or overwrite past statements before contentious Senate confirmation fights.
Vulnerabilities can be scored for risk according to the Common Vulnerability Scoring System or other systems, and added to vulnerability databases. As of November 2024 [update] , there are more than 240,000 vulnerabilities [ 1 ] catalogued in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database.
Climate change continues to worsen the coastal storms that batter California's aging piers. The result is frequent and expensive repairs.
