CVE Prioritizer: Open-source tool to prioritize vulnerability patching

CVE Prioritizer is an open-source tool designed to assist in prioritizing the patching of vulnerabilities.
It integrates data from CVSS, EPSS, and CISA's KEV catalog to offer insights into the probability of exploitation and the potential effects of vulnerabilities on your systems.
The tool leverages the correlation between CVSS and EPSS scores to improve efforts in fixing vulnerabilities.
CVSS provides essential details about a vulnerability's characteristics, whereas EPSS supplies information based on data-driven threats, aiding in more effective prioritization of patching activities.
Rojas developed the CVE Prioritizer to tackle the ongoing challenge that security teams encounter in prioritizing patches effectively.
While the CVSS scores have traditionally been used in this process, Rojas recognized their limitations in fully understanding a vulnerability's actual impact in the real world.
The emergence of CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog marked progress by spotlighting actively exploited vulnerabilities.
Rojas saw the necessity for a more comprehensive approach.
