What is CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System)?
CVSS provides a numerical score (0.0 to 10.0) representing the severity of a vulnerability. The score considers factors like attack vector (network vs. local), complexity, privileges required, user interaction, and impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Scores map to severity ratings: 0.0 = None, 0.1–3.9 = Low, 4.0–6.9 = Medium, 7.0–8.9 = High, 9.0–10.0 = Critical. CVSS scores help prioritize which vulnerabilities to fix first.
