The factor “The length of time the weakness has existed” is NOT considered in the CWSS (Common Weakness Scoring System) scoring.
Explanation:
- The likelihood of exploitation: This is considered in CWSS as it helps assess how likely it is that a weakness will be exploited.
- The level of difficulty to fix the weakness: This is also considered, as it impacts the prioritization of addressing the weakness.
- The number of vendors affected by the weakness: This is relevant as it influences the overall impact and scope of the weakness.
- The length of time the weakness has existed: CWSS does not consider this factor in its scoring. CWSS focuses on current risk, impact, and ease of exploitation, rather than the historical duration of the weakness.
