Overview

New vulnerabilities as Ethiack detects them, whether Ethiack validated exploitation with a check or an exploit, and when, relative to CVE publication on cve.org and KEV listing.

Definitions

TermMeaning
t = 0Publication of the CVE record on cve.org. Every days value counts from it, negative meaning before it.
Lower boundAn entry with no cve.org record yet has no t = 0, so its days are measured to the time of the response and keep growing (is_lower_bound: true).
CheckFires on a vulnerable deployment and stays silent on a patched one. Ethiack's pipeline validated it, or it is a public external detection module or template.
ExploitAn Ethiack agent produced a high-confidence full exploit against an isolated deployment of the product, or a public external detection module or template.
TTVTime to validate: when Ethiack had a working check or exploit (signals.check, signals.exploit).
TTETime to exploit: the earliest listing across CISA KEV, EUVD KEV and VulnCheck KEV (signals.kev).
