Folks,

A reminder that we will be hosting a teleconference and with a web broadcast briefing on Wednesday.

Please re-review the products and sources list (after my sig) as this will be the first issue on the agenda. Due to the length of the list, it won't be practical to display in a briefing slide.   Please refer to this email (or the email sent out on 9/26) during the discussion.

Here is a reminder of the dial-in and web information:

=====
CVE COVERAGE GOALS
=====
CVE's coverage goals are stated in terms of "sources" of information (e.g. web sites, vendor advisories, vulnerability databases) and "products" (e.g. Microsoft Office, Red Hat Enterprise Linux).  


=====
SOURCES
=====
We separate sources into 2 major groups: 
- Those that should be fully covered ("Full Coverage")
- Those that should be partially covered ("Partial Coverage")

"Full Coverage" means that for nearly all issues disclosed by the source that could be associated with a CVE entry, there will be an associated CVE entry, regardless of the criticality of the issue. Although a source is named as "Full Coverage," we purposely use the phrasing "nearly all issues disclosed" to allow the flexibility to potentially postpone coverage of minor issues.

"Partial Coverage" means that the source will be actively monitored but issues will be processed and associated with CVE entries based on a variety of editorial judgments. 

As a bridge to the product coverage goals, we further sub-divide each of these lists into 2 sub-lists:
- "Vendor," meaning the source can be associated with a vendor or primary maintainer of a product or set of products.
- "Other," a catch-all for things like vulnerability databases, mailing lists and advisories from coordination centers, which tend to disclose vulnerability information from many different vendors.

PLEASE NOTE: MITRE actively monitors many sources beyond this list.  These sources include things like blogs from vulnerability researchers, conference proceedings and media outlets. Monitoring this set of sources has proven to be productive for and informative to the CVE analysts. Which sources are of most utility is highly dependent on a given situation. As such, we don't believe it of general utility to list them all specifically.

PRODUCTS
======
All products listed are considered to be "must have".  This means that we will ensure that a CVE ID is issued for any public disclosure for the product provided that:

a) the disclosure is publicly associated with the product with a reasonably recognizable variant of the product name (we are not going to entirely solve the product identification problem)

b) the disclosure is published in at least one source that is listed as either "full coverage" or "partial coverage", per the list of sources above.


Products are stated as "vendor: product name", where the product name may be a specific product, set of products or "all".
