Severity scores defined by OISF and CVSS may vary due to how we assess and evaluate impact. While CVSS has a more generic view on vulnerabilities and will penalize any network-related issues, for instance, OISF considers Suricata context as the baseline (thus, as example, affecting the network isn’t taken into account).

#### Security Issues

Note that we have refined our severities sometime back. CRITICAL severity is reserved for issues affecting Tier 1 features enabled by default, involving remotely triggerable traffic-based code execution. HIGH severity also covers Tier 1 features enabled by default, where there’s possible loss of visibility or availability.

If you think you’ve encountered a security vulnerability, please see how to [report a security issue](https://github.com/OISF/suricata/security/policy#reporting-issues).
