Welcome to the latest issue of the CVE-Announce e-newsletter. This email newsletter is designed to bring recent news about CVE, such as new website features, new CNAs, CVE in the news, etc. right to your email box. Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) is the standard for cybersecurity vulnerability names. The CVE Board provides oversight and input into CVE's strategic direction, ensuring CVE meets the vulnerability identification needs of the technology community. CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) are vendors and projects, vulnerability researchers, national and industry CERTs, and bug bounty programs that assign CVE Identifiers (CVE IDs) to newly discovered issues, and include the CVE IDs in the first public disclosure of the vulnerabilities. Details on subscribing (and unsubscribing) to the email newsletter are at the end. Please feel free to pass this newsletter on to interested colleagues.
