CVSS 4.0 vs. 3.1: what actually changed, and why your priority list should too
CVSS 4.0 killed the Scope metric, added Attack Requirements, and split scoring into CVSS-B/BT/BE/BTE labels — here's what that means for triage.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

A single off-by-length check in curl's SOCKS5 handshake, live for over three years across libcurl 7.69.0–8.3.x, earned a 9.8 CVSS score and a CWE-787 out-of-bounds write.
Four medium-severity CUPS bugs chained into unauthenticated RCE on UDP/631 — a masterclass in why CVSS scores per-CVE miss the real risk of a vulnerability chain.
crypto-js versions before 4.2.0 defaulted PBKDF2 to SHA1 with a single iteration — NVD calls it 1,300,000 times weaker than modern standards. Here's the fix.
CISA's new BOD 26-04 gives federal agencies as little as 3 days to remediate the highest-risk flaws — a preview of the SLA pressure every engineering org now faces.

Two years after CVSS 4.0's release, adoption remains uneven. Here is where scoring really changed, where it did not, and how to handle mixed datasets.
Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange documents promise to reduce alert fatigue by distinguishing exploitable vulnerabilities from theoretical ones. Here is how enterprises are actually using them.
Reachability analysis cuts CVE noise by confirming which vulnerabilities are exploitable. Here's how Black Duck's Polaris reachability compares to Safeguard's pipeline-native approach.
