In computer security, the term vulnerability is applied to a weakness in a system which allows an attacker to violate the integrity of that system. Vulnerabilities may result from weak passwords, software bugs, a computer virus or other malware, a script code injection, or a SQL injection. Vulnerability notes include technical descriptions of the vulnerability, as well as the impact, solutions and workarounds, and lists of affected vendors.

Vulnerability may be due to

• Password management flaws
• Ffundamental operating system
• Ddesign flaws
• Software bugs
• Unchecked user input.

• Buffer overflows
• Dangling pointers
• SQL injection
• Code injection
• Directory traversal
• Cross site scripting
• C • cross site request forgery

The method of disclosing vulnerabilities is a topic of debate in the computer security community. The time of disclosure is the first date security vulnerability is described on a channel where the disclosed information on the vulnerability has to fulfill the following requirement:

• The information is freely available to the public
• The vulnerability information is published by a trusted and independent channel/source
• The vulnerability has undergone analysis by experts such that risk rating information is included upon disclosure
