CVSS v3 Base Metrics

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • PCI-DSS: CVE score discrepancy between RHN and NIST

  • I received security alerts for several OpenSSL fixes, which is good.
    However, there is something I don't understand:
    The RHN page says: Base Score: 4.3

  • While after following the Base Metrics link to the NIST page, I see: CVSS Base Score 7.5

  • Others are also different, but with smaller gaps.

Environment

  • Red Hat CVSS
