CVE-2024-29981: Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Spoofing Vulnerability
Why is the severity for this CVE rated as Moderate, but the CVSS score is higher than normal?
Per our severity guidelines, the amount of user interaction or preconditions required to allow this sort of exploitation downgraded the severity, specifically it says, "If a bug requires more than a click, a key press, or several preconditions, the severity will be downgraded". The CVSS scoring system doesn’t allow for this type of nuance.
