CVE, or Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, serves as a universal catalog for identifying security flaws in software and systems. Each vulnerability is assigned a unique identifier (e.g., CVE-[number]), which allows security teams, developers, and tools around the world to discuss the same issue without confusion. This system helps ensure that everyone is aligned when it comes to addressing known weaknesses, sharing solutions, and protecting their systems. You can think of CVE as a shared dictionary for cybersecurity, enabling clear communication about technology safety.
