SC World reports on the 2026 OSSRA findings: 87% of codebases contained at least one vulnerability, average of 581 vulnerabilities per codebase, 107% year-over-year increase driven by codebase complexity growth.
Why read: Most detailed publicly available coverage of the OSSRA 2026 report with the contextual data (codebase growth, component growth, Linux kernel CNA impact) needed to present the 107% increase honestly.
NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) · April 15, 2026
NIST announces operational changes to NVD due to 263% increase in CVE submissions between 2020-2025.
Why read: Authoritative US government data quantifying CVE database expansion (263% over 5 years) — essential context for explaining why per-codebase vulnerability counts increased 107% without proportional security degradation.
