CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) are organizations authorized to assign CVE IDs to vulnerabilities and to publish
information about them. These organizations include software vendors, open-source projects, coordination centers,
and research institutions that are part of the CVE Program. Each CNA is responsible for assigning CVE IDs within a
specific scope usually related to the products, projects, or services they cover, and for ensuring that each CVE Record
contains accurate and detailed information about the vulnerability.
CNAs play a critical role in the CVE ecosystem as they help in:
Identification: They provide a unique identifier (CVE ID) for each vulnerability, which is used universally to reference the vulnerability
Documentation: They document the details of the vulnerability in a CVE Record, including a description, potential impact, related references, and other relevant information.
Publication: They ensure that the information about the vulnerability is made public, allowing organizations and individuals to be aware of and understand the nature of the vulnerabilities affecting their systems..
Overall, CNAs are crucial in the management and standardization of information about cybersecurity vulnerabilities,
facilitating the sharing of data and enabling better vulnerability management and mitigation efforts across the cybersecurity community.
