Vulnerability Summary for the Week of October 29, 2012
The CISA Vulnerability Bulletin provides a summary of new vulnerabilities that have been recorded in the past week. In some cases, the vulnerabilities in the bulletin may not yet have assigned CVSS scores.
Vulnerabilities are based on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) vulnerability naming standard and are organized according to severity, determined by the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) standard. The division of high, medium, and low severities correspond to the following scores:
- High: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 7.0–10.0
- Medium: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 4.0–6.9
- Low: vulnerabilities with a CVSS base score of 0.0–3.9
Entries may include additional information provided by organizations and efforts sponsored by CISA. This information may include identifying information, values, definitions, and related links. Patch information is provided when available. Please note that some of the information in the bulletin is compiled from external, open-source reports and is not a direct result of CISA analysis.
