CVE Dashboard
The CVE Dashboard in SureMDM offers a centralized interface for monitoring and managing vulnerabilities affecting Windows devices.
This feature is available exclusively in the Premium and Enterprise tiers and supports devices running Windows 10 and Windows 11.
- Log in to the SureMDM Web Console.
- Navigate to the Security tab.
- Click on CVE Dashboard from the left-hand menu.
Dashboard Overview
The CVE Dashboard provides insights through two primary charts:
1. CVE Status Chart
This chart displays the total number of devices affected by all CVEs. It categorizes devices into:
- At Risk Devices: Devices that are currently vulnerable.
- Resolved Devices: Devices where the vulnerabilities have been addressed.
This chart gives a clear overview of the current security status across all your devices.
2. Severity Chart
The Severity chart categorizes devices based on the severity levels of vulnerabilities. Severity levels include:
- Critical: High-priority vulnerabilities requiring immediate attention.
- Important: Significant vulnerabilities that could impact system security.
- Moderate: Vulnerabilities with a lesser impact on security.
- Low: Minor vulnerabilities with minimal risk.
- None: Devices with vulnerabilities that have no severity (usually app-based CVEs).
Clicking on any section of this chart allows you to view detailed information about devices affected by vulnerabilities within that severity category.
Detailed CVE Table
The dashboard includes a comprehensive table with the following columns:
Column Name | Description |
---|---|
CVE Number | Unique identifier for the vulnerability (e.g., CVE-2024-43633). |
CVE Title | Brief description of the vulnerability. |
Product | Target Windows version (e.g., Windows 11 Version 22H2). |
Classification | Type of update (e.g., Security Update). |
Published Date | Date the vulnerability was reported. |
KB Number | Corresponding Microsoft Knowledge Base number. |
Severity | Indicates vulnerability severity (Important, Critical). |
At Risk Devices | Number of devices affected. |
Safe Devices | Number of devices where the issue is resolved. |
Reboot Required | Indicates if a device reboot is required post-update. |
Base/Temporal Score | CVSS scores representing vulnerability impact. |
Issuing CNA | Organization that reported the vulnerability. |
Resolve At-Risk Devices
The Resolve At-Risk Devices action allows administrators to quickly address vulnerabilities detected in devices by applying necessary patches and updates.
Steps to Resolve At-Risk Devices
- Navigate to the CVE Dashboard.
- In the CVE Table, identify CVEs with "At Risk Devices" listed.
- Click the Resolve At-Risk Devices button located above the CVE table.
- Select the CVEs from the table list.
- Click Resolve At-Risk Devices to resolve detected vulnerabilities.
Alternatively:
- Click on At-Risk Devices count and choose specific devices for a given CVE.
- Select the required device(s).
- Click Resolve At-Risk Devices to resolve detected vulnerabilities.
- The Resolve At-Risk Devices action streamlines CVE management by directly addressing vulnerabilities for devices listed as "At Risk."
- Device reboots may be required depending on the applied patches. Refer to the Reboot Required column in the CVE Table for details.
Additional Options on the Overview Page
- Export: Exports the table data to be saved locally in CSV format.
- Search Box: Allows users to search for specific information.
