The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is the state-of-the art system for
assessing software vulnerabilities. However, it has been criticized for lack of validity and …

In recent years, the number of vulnerabilities discovered and publicly disclosed has shown a
sharp upward trend. However, the value of exploitation of vulnerabilities varies for attackers …

The number of software vulnerabilities discovered and publicly disclosed is increasing every
year; however, only a small fraction of them is exploited in real-world attacks. With limitations …

Abstract The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is the most widely used
standard for quantifying the severity of security vulnerabilities. For instance, all …

Attacks on computer systems are now attracting increased attention. While the current trends
in software vulnerability discovery indicate that the number of newly discovered …

Some of the key aspects of vulnerability—discovery, dissemination, and disclosure—have
received some attention recently. However, the role of interaction among the vulnerability …

An unpatched vulnerability can lead to security breaches. When a new vulnerability is
discovered, it needs to be assessed so that it can be prioritized. A major challenge in …

As developers face an ever-increasing pressure to engineer secure software, researchers
are building an understanding of security-sensitive bugs (ie vulnerabilities). Research into …

This paper presents the Scanning, Vulnerabilities, Exploits and Detection tool (SVED).
SVED facilitates reliable and repeatable cyber security experiments by providing a means to …
