FIRST · CVSS
Vulnerability severity specification and calculators. A score alone does not describe organisation-specific risk.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- CVSS 4.0 scores run from 0.0 to 10.0. Base, Threat, Environmental and Supplemental metric groups serve different purposes.
- How to use it
- Retain the score version, vector and date. Compare it with the installed version, access paths and business consequences before ordering remediation.
- Limitation to retain
- A high score is not evidence of exploitation; a low score does not mean a service has no risk.
Documentation reviewed on
CVSS, EPSS, KEV and VEX
What is the technical severity under the assessed metrics?
The score proves neither exploitation nor consequences for your service.

CVE Program
Public vulnerability identifiers and records. Check products, affected versions and links to original advisories.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- A JSON schema defines the CVE record format. An identifier and the published contents of its record are distinct things.
- How to use it
- Open the record and references; check its state, described affected versions and supplier information. Keep the identifier in action tracking.
- Limitation to retain
- A CVE identifier is neither a severity score nor proof that your installation is affected.

NIST · National Vulnerability Database
Vulnerability database and technical enrichment. Cross-check records against vendor advisories and the deployed configuration.

NIST · AI Risk Management Framework
Voluntary framework and resources for documenting AI risks. Check the version and status of consulted documents.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- The AI RMF Core is organised around Govern, Map, Measure and Manage. It is a voluntary risk-management framework.
- How to use it
- Define intended use, affected people and error consequences. Connect each risk to an evaluation, owner and stop or recovery mechanism.
- Limitation to retain
- The framework certifies neither a model nor an application. Using it does not remove the need to examine applicable requirements.

OWASP · GenAI Security Project
Open risk reference for LLM and generative AI applications, including prompt injection, disclosure and excessive permissions.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- The 2025 edition includes Prompt Injection, Sensitive Information Disclosure and Excessive Agency.
- How to use it
- Turn a risk into an observable scenario: hostile document, restricted data or out-of-scope tool. Record expected behaviour and evidence of refusal.
- Limitation to retain
- A risk list is not a complete assessment. Input filtering alone does not establish authorisation for every action.

RAG: access rights, citations and caches
An accurate answer can disclose a forbidden document. Retrieval relevance, citation validity and access authorisation are separate checks. The service providing passages must enforce the current identity’s rights before exposing them to the model.

MITRE · Common Weakness Enumeration
Name classes of software and hardware weakness.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- A CWE describes a weakness that can contribute to vulnerabilities. It does not represent a particular incident.
- How to use it
- Connect the weakness to the observed mechanism: input, processing and missing control. Use it to fix the cause and plan regression tests.
- Limitation to retain
- A keyword in a report alone does not establish the correct CWE classification.

W3C · WCAG 2.2
Evaluate accessibility criteria for web content.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- WCAG 2.2 is a W3C Recommendation. Success criteria have A, AA and AAA levels.
- How to use it
- Define tasks, pages and states, then combine inspection, keyboard, zoom and relevant assistive technology. Keep reproduction steps for barriers.
- Limitation to retain
- An automated scanner does not establish conformity of a complete journey. Evaluation must cover interactive states and actual content.

Google · Core Web Vitals
Distinguish loading, responsiveness and visual stability.
Reference details
- Verified data or benchmark
- Good thresholds are LCP ≤ 2.5 s, INP ≤ 200 ms and CLS ≤ 0.1 at the 75th percentile, segmented by mobile and desktop.
- How to use it
- Separate field measurement from laboratory tests. Record period, URL, device, population and sample size before comparing changes.
- Limitation to retain
- These thresholds are not measured results for this site. A good lab score alone does not establish visitor experience.
