The report explains that NVD will stop consistently enriching all CVEs due to soaring disclosure volumes and will instead focus enrichment on a prioritized subset (e.g., known exploited vulnerabilities and federal-relevant software). This structural change will leave many CVEs without severity scores, complete product metadata, or contextual exploitability information, increasing manual triage and backlog for security teams; the report recommends adopting broader, analyst-driven vulnerability intelligence and prioritizing by exploitation and environmental relevance.
