Request: Vulnerability Report Template

[wdiasvargas]

Dear Team,

I propose the implementation of a standardized vulnerability reporting template to enhance consistency, comprehensiveness, and clarity in communicating security vulnerabilities.

Benefits of a Standardized Template:

Improved Consistency: All reports will adhere to a uniform structure, facilitating easier reading and comparison.
Comprehensiveness: The template will prompt reporters to include essential information, such as vulnerability type, affected components, and potential impact.
Enhanced Understanding: A well-structured template will empower developers and security teams to effectively grasp reported vulnerabilities and take appropriate corrective actions.
Proposed Template Sections:

Executive Summary:
A concise overview of the vulnerability, encompassing the CVE ID, affected components, and potential impact.

Vulnerability Details:
A detailed description, including the CWE ID, attack vector, and exploitation steps.

Reproduction Steps:
Clear instructions for reproducing the vulnerability.

Impact:
A thorough assessment of the potential impact, incorporating severity rating and potential consequences.

Recommendation:
A suggested approach to remediate the vulnerability.

References:
add a field to insert document references

I appreciate your time and consideration of this proposal.

Sincerely,
William Dias Vargas
