New! CVE Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for CVEs has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. CVEs that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Description

The default configuration of Safari in Apple Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.10 adds a private key to the keychain with permissions that allow other applications to access the key without warning the user, which might allow other applications to bypass intended access restrictions.
