Vulnaware Bridges Vulnerability Scanners and ITSM Systems to Improve Critical Flaw Prioritization
A new open-source tool called Vulnaware has been developed to address the persistent gap between vulnerability discovery and remediation in enterprise environments. The project focuses on intelligent prioritization rather than attempting to fix every reported CVE, recognizing that fewer than 10 percent of published vulnerabilities are ever exploited. It integrates outputs from MaxPatrol VM, Nessus Pro, and Greenbone/OpenVAS, then applies scoring based on CISA KEV catalog presence, public exploit availability from Vulncheck feeds, and trend data. Prioritized issues are automatically converted into tickets in Jira Service Management, GLPI, Znuny, and osTicket, while also delivering alerts via Telegram and email. The approach aligns with the updated CISA BOD 26-04 framework that replaced flat 15- and 25-day deadlines with risk-based timelines of 3, 14, or 60 days. By treating vulnerability remediation as a managed change or service request under ITIL4 principles, Vulnaware ensures that critical issues reach the correct engineering teams with proper SLA tracking.
