VexNotAffectedVulnAssessmentRelationship

Summary

Links a vulnerability and one or more elements designating the latter as products not affected by the vulnerability.

Description

VexNotAffectedVulnAssessmentRelationship connects a vulnerability and a number of elements designating them as products not affected by the vulnerability. This relationship corresponds to the VEX not_affected status.

Constraints

When linking elements using a VexNotVulnAffectedAssessmentRelationship, the following requirements must be observed:

• Relating elements with a VexNotAffectedVulnAssessmentRelationship is restricted to the doesNotAffect relationship type.
• The from: end of the relationship must be a /Security/Vulnerability classed element.
• Both impactStatement and justificationType properties have a cardinality of 0..1 making them optional. Nevertheless, to produce a valid VEX not_affected statement, one of them MUST be defined. This is specified in the Minimum Elements for VEX.
