CVE

An online repository managed by the MITRE organization, serving as a comprehensive database of known attacks, exploits, and compromises. Its primary purpose is to provide public access to information on vulnerabilities affecting various computer systems and software products. CVE catalogues a wide range of security issues across different platforms and applications. Often, new vulnerabilities and exploits are documented in CVE entries long before vendors acknowledge them or release updates or patches to address the issues, making CVE a valuable resource for cybersecurity professionals and the broader public.
