The category a software belongs to according to the UNSPSC Class.
The Common Platform Enumeration is a structured naming scheme based upon Uniform Resource Identifiers and used for information technology systems, software, and packages. The CPE naming specification defines standardized methods for assigning names to IT product classes.
Example:
The following name represents the Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0.6001 Beta
wfn:[part="a", vendor="microsoft", product="internet_explorer",
version="8\.0\.6001", update="beta"]
The second binding defined in CPE 2.3 is called a formatted string binding. It has a somewhat different sytnax than the URI binding, and it also supports additional product attributes. With the formatted string binding, the WFN above can be presented by the following:
cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:internet_explorer:8.0.6001:beta:*.*.*.*.*.*
The WFN concept and the bindings defined by the CPE naming specification are the fundamental building blocks at the core of all CPE functionality.
CVE records, short for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (also referred to by the community as "CVE Identifiers", "CVE IDs", "CVE names", "CVE numbers", and "CVEs") are unique common identifiers for publicly known cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
CVE Identifier: meaning is the "Link ID" of a product listed on https://www.cvedatails.com/.
CWE stands for Common Weakness Enumeration and is a category system for hardware and software weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
