Hi fellow LTS contributors I hope you do not mind me asking but there is one thing that I would like to check. When I look at this CVE that was previously postponed: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2019-12214 The information tells that the vulnerability my in fact not be in

Hi Roberto Maybe there is some counting mishap still. We may get double counting due to the -A and -B flags. But it should not matter so much because the double counting will then be both for corrected and others (at least on average). When writing this I think I may get more over-counting on the

Hi Cyrille Yes CVSS is a good starting point. A question there is how accurate that score is, especially for CVEs on obscure packages. I think it is valuable to have a guideline so we can evaluate if the CVSS is reasonable. It is sometimes a little dangerous to only focus on a number. :-) But

Why not using CVSS as a base calculation for assigning severity levels? IIRC, something like: CVSS>=8 => High 4<=CVSS<8 => Medium CVSS<4 => Low was a good guidance in my previous job. FYI, I've attached the table that drove us to these score. Cyrille Le mercredi 10 avril 2024 à 23:30 +0200,
