What are vulnerabilities in cyber security?

Definition(s): Weakness in an information system, system security procedures, internal controls, or implementation that could be exploited or triggered by a threat source.

Are there any vulnerabilities in a VGA display?

In the case of VGA, this was a backported feature (VGA displays from the early 1990s could not do that). Theoretically, this could be exploited, if (and only if) there is some weakness in the receiving part (the display card and its driver). The protocol is not complex (no TCP/IP stack involved) so exploitable security holes should be rare.

Why are vulnerabilities by common ports dashboard important?

Vulnerabilities by Common Ports Dashboard. Vulnerabilities within network services may result in data loss, denial of services, or allow attackers to facilitate attacks against other devices. Checking for insecure or non-essential services is critical to reducing risk on the network.

What are the vulnerabilities of a DVI port?

The plug-and-play feature of a DVI port utilize the I2C (i-squared-C) bus, a low speed serial bus that internonnect the two endpoints and allow negitiation of plug and play features. Potential for abuse, but I don’t know of any POC code.

How does the CVSS vulnerability count per port work?

The CVSS Vulnerability Counts per Port component uses a combination of CVSS scores and severity ranking to communicate the risk of discovered vulnerabilities. Details for ports vulnerabilities less than 1024, greater than 1024 and unique filters for FTP, SSH, SMTP, HTTP and HTTPS are included.
