E08: CVE is dead… long live CVE!

This episode was originally planned as a recap of VulnCon 2025, but recent events around the CVE program took center stage. On April 15, 2025, news broke that funding for CVE was being cut — only to be restored by CISA within 24 hours. In that short window, speculation and FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) spread quickly, along with a flurry of new initiatives aiming to respond.
