Re: Concerns about CVE coverage shrinking - direct impact to researchers/companies

[Reed Loden <reed () reedloden com>]

Issued to some people, perhaps, but there are plenty of examples of MITRE
not issuing CVEs even after multiple months and pokes. Understand MITRE is
resource constrained, but they are blocking new CNAs as well, which doesn't
help.

Just check out the board list archives (
https://cve.mitre.org/data/board/archives/). MITRE isn't responding at all
to people's concerns.
