What is a CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures)
A CVE is a unique ID for a known security flaw, but how it's assigned, scored, and disclosed is far messier than the name suggests.
CrewAI Sandbox Escape: Four CVEs That Chain Through Prompt Injection
Cyata disclosed four CrewAI vulnerabilities in early 2026 that chain through prompt injection to RCE, SSRF, and arbitrary file read. The Docker-fallback design pattern is the root cause.
What is CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System)
CVSS scores rate vulnerability severity from 0.0 to 10.0 — but a 9.8 doesn't mean exploitable in your app. Here's how the math and priorities really work.
What is EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System)
EPSS scores every CVE's real-world exploit probability. Here's how the FIRST.org model works, how it differs from CVSS, and how to use it to triage faster.
What is an Exploit
An exploit is code that weaponizes a vulnerability. Learn how exploits differ from CVEs, how attackers acquire them, and how to prioritize real exploitation risk.
What is Remote Code Execution (RCE)
RCE lets attackers run code on your systems remotely, often without login. Learn how it works, real CVE examples, and how to detect it before exploitation.
Reachability Analysis: Cutting Through CVE Noise to Find What Actually Matters
Why most CVEs in your dependency tree are not exploitable in your application, and how reachability analysis separates real risk from noise.
CVE-2025-53521 in F5 BIG-IP APM: Patch Posture & SBOM Response
F5 BIG-IP APM bug reclassified from DoS to RCE at CVSS 9.8 and landed on CISA KEV. Defender playbook for the late-cycle severity surprise.
Use of Components with Known Vulnerabilities
Equifax lost 147M records to one unpatched library. Here's what "components with known vulnerabilities" means and how reachability analysis fixes the triage problem.
