CSAF 2.0 - A New Start to Automate Advisories
summary
CSAF 2.0 is a JSON-based, machine-readable advisory format (successor to CVRF 1.2) that vendors can publish and asset owners can automatically ingest to match advisories against an asset inventory, apply a static environmental score, and cut manual review counts (example: 15 advisories reduced to ~7 after automation). Available tools include Stackvisogram, a CSAF visualizer and the c7 test suite (all on GitHub). Open issues: unique product IDs, no API yet, and an aggregator model under OASIS coordination.
