Security advisories

CVE Radar

Vulnerabilities reported in FOSSWire news. Each story is checked against its source page: CVE IDs are listed only when the source names them, severity is the CVSS score published by NVD (or the severity the source states), and exploitation status comes from the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.

52 Advisories
11 Critical
13 High Severity
6 Medium
1 Exploited in the wild

Severity comes from the NVD score. "Provisional" means NVD has not scored it yet, so the source's own rating is shown; "Unrated" means neither has given one.
