Understanding Vulnerability Severity Ratings
This chapter explores the importance of severity ratings in vulnerability assessment, focusing on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) and its limitations. The discussion highlights the necessity of context in interpreting these ratings, exemplified by the case of Suite 32, which showcases how a high score doesn't always equate to real-world risk. Additionally, it explores alternative frameworks and emphasizes the need for a nuanced approach to managing vulnerabilities in cybersecurity.
