Understanding CVSS and Scanner Severity Scores in Vulnerability Management

Organizations prioritize remediation of exposures using CVSS and scanner severity scores. These scores emphasize severity over actual risk, which is tied to vulnerabilities that are actively exploited. Research shows that CVSS scores can exaggerate the criticality of vulnerabilities, leading to excessive remediation efforts. This misalignment may cause critical vulnerabilities to be rated as medium risk, leaving them unaddressed in organizations that depend solely on CVSS for prioritization.
