Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Servercert-wg] VOTING BEGINS: Ballot SC39v3:

Colleagues,

This begins the voting period for ballot SC39v3: Definition of Critical Vulnerability.

The following motion has been proposed by Neil Dunbar of TrustCor and endorsed by Ben Wilson (Mozilla) and Corey Bonnell (DigiCert).

-- MOTION BEGINS --

This ballot modifies the "Network and Certificate System Security Requirements" based on Version 1.5.

Under the section "Definitions":

Remove the current definition:

Critical Vulnerability: A system vulnerability that has a CVSS score of 7.0 or higher according to the NVD or an equivalent to such CVSS rating (see http://nvd.nist.gov/home.cfm<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnvd.nist.gov%2Fhome.cfm&data=04%7C01%7CMike.reilly%40microsoft.com%7C5df72de5fede4f62101f08d8c7850b8b%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637478721538729818%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=ckebDzZjgaTppeSzphkDkcHSNpd8Zey6xe483khXUOI%3D&reserved=0>), or as otherwise designated as a Critical Vulnerability by the CA or the CA/Browser Forum.

Insert a new definition:

Critical Vulnerability: A system vulnerability that has a CVSS v2.0 score of 7.0 or higher according to the NVD or an equivalent to such CVSS rating (see https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss<https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnvd.nist.gov%2Fvuln-metrics%2Fcvss&data=04%7C01%7CMike.reilly%40microsoft.com%7C5df72de5fede4f62101f08d8c7850b8b%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637478721538729818%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=2xlyO1mOazBieSwJegm6dr7uilLeSXZT1EJwKtjpQvM%3D&reserved=0>), or as otherwise designated as a Critical Vulnerability by the CA or the CA/Browser Forum.
