Trending vulnerabilities 2023

Alexander Leonov, lead expert with the PT Expert Security Center

In 2023, Positive Technologies categorized a total of 110 security flaws as trending vulnerabilities. These are the most severe vulnerabilities, which must be remediated or compensated for as soon as possible. We isolate these from a large number of vulnerabilities that appear every day. Information about these vulnerabilities appears in MaxPatrol VM within 12 hours. This article takes a closer look at how we define trending vulnerabilities and lists the types of vulnerabilities that posed the greatest threat in 2023.

Conclusion

Prioritization of vulnerabilities is a cornerstone of a robust security system. However, relying exclusively on sources like CISA KEV and the NVD makes building efficient security a challenge. These catalogs often publish data with a delay, report vulnerabilities in outdated software, and fail to consider the characteristics of non-standard threats and how these change. MaxPatrol VM trending vulnerability data helps you to stay up to date on the most severe vulnerabilities and respond rapidly. We add new expertise to the product as early as practically possible, within 12 hours.
