We should start naming them like hurricanes: NIST creates a list of alphabetical names and assigns any CVE >= 9.0 with a name. Vulnerability Alex (CVE 9.4)

"Oh man, Jan really ruined my weekend."

I actually kinda like how that works.

CVSS is a terrible proxy for vulnerability real world impact. Not to mention, that CVE with CVSS 10.0 in Bob's Flower Names library with 5 users is probably not that important.
