Enhancing CVSS Scores with Temporal & Threat Metrics

The project "cvss-bt" enriches the National Vulnerability Database's (NVD) CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) scores by including temporal and threat metrics. It focuses on improving vulnerability prioritization by considering Exploit Code Maturity/Exploitability, a temporal metric that indicates the level of exploit development for vulnerabilities. This enhancement helps in better assessing the urgency and severity of vulnerabilities based on real-world exploit activity.

OWASP SAMM Skills Framework Enhances Software Security Roles

The OWASP SAMM Skills Framework, introduced on February 9, 2025, is a new initiative donated by Siemens to enhance software security practices within organizations. This framework assigns specific responsibilities to SAMM (Software Assurance Maturity Model) streams, clarifying which roles are involved in advancing each stream. It provides guidance on the necessary skills and training for each role, aligning SAMM-related activities with appropriate stakeholders and their required competencies. This alignment helps organizations identify the right personnel and visualize shared responsibilities, ensuring a structured approach to secure product development. Implementing the OWASP SAMM Skills Framework involves several key steps. Organizations must first map responsibilities to roles, ensuring each task is assigned to the right individual. Next, they must evaluate and align stakeholders with specific SAMM streams, validating that those assigned understand and accept their roles in advanci...
