You have to reinvent reasons for playing, and one year's answer might not do for another._ _-Yo-Yo Ma_ There are a number of proposed models of the CVD process that have slightly varying phases \[17\] \[18\] \[45\] \[69\]. Below, we adapt a version of the ISO/IEC 30111 \[45\] process with more phases to better describe what we have seen at the CERT/CC. |
A mapping of CVD phases to CVD roles is provided in Table 2.
Table 2: Mapping CVD Roles to Phases
Roles | Finder | Reporter | Vendor | Coordinator | Deployer |
Discovery | Finds vulnerabilities | ||||
Reporting | Prepares report | Reports vuls to vendor(s) and/or coordinators | Receives reports | Receives reports | |
Validation and Triage | Validates reports received | Validates reports received | |||
Remediation | Confirms fix | Prepares patches | Coordinates multiparty response | ||
Public Awareness | Publishes report | Publishes report | Publishes report | Publishes report | Receives report |
Deployment | Deploys fix or mitigation |
We will next discuss each of these phases in more detail.
