What is the difference between Vulnerability and Notification?
When the "Notification" box is checked, the template is changed from Vulnerability to Notification, displaying only the Title, Vulnerability, Reference, and Solution fields.
Impact, Probability, Categories, and Standards are not required for notifications:
At Conviso, we regularly review and update our templates. Through internal technical discussions, we concluded that a vulnerability refers to an actual security weakness that can be exploited.
Some headers and good practices may not directly allow exploitation, but their implementation strengthens security measures and makes exploitation more difficult. Hence, we classify such cases as notifications.
