Last April, CISA issued an 11-month extension for its CVE program with MITRE, rescuing the program from an almost certain death.
Since then, CISA and MITRE have negotiated a new deal that puts the CVE program on firmer footing.
My exclusive for CSO, with thanks to Peter Allor and others within the cybersecurity vulnerability community.
CVE program funding secured, easing fears of repeat crisis

Metacurity is the only independent daily cybersecurity newsletter that is written outside the usual cyber press echosphere and is a refreshing alternative to vendor-driven content and PR-flavored threat intelligence.
Every day, Metacurity publishes critical infosec developments that CISOs, security engineers, IT decision-makers, and infosec practitioners should know, scanned from thousands of sources and expertly summarized.
I've never asked on social media before, but if you find value in it, please consider supporting. My goal is 10 new annual subscribers this month to put Metacurity on a solid footing🙏
