Statement of Purpose for this OASIS TC Open Repository (csaf-documentation) as proposed and approved [bis] by the TC:

The purpose of this GitHub public repository is to support development of open source resources and documentation related to CSAF Technical Committee work.

The OASIS CSAF Technical Committee was chartered to make a major revision to the Common Vulnerability Reporting Framework (CVRF) under a new name for the framework that reflects the primary purpose: a Common Security Advisory Framework (CSAF). TC deliverables are designed standardize existing practice in structured machine-readable vulnerability-related advisories and further refine those standards over time.

The Common Security Advisory Framework's (CSAF) Common Vulnerability Reporting Framework (CVRF) is a language to exchange Security Advisories formulated in XML. The term Security Advisory describes any notification of security issues in products of and by providers. Anyone providing a product is considered in this document as a vendor, i.e. developers or maintainers of information system products or services. This includes all authoritative product vendors, Product Security Incident Response Teams (PSIRTs), and product resellers and distributors, including authoritative vendor partners.
