Usage
require 'cvss_suite'
cvss4 = CvssSuite.new('CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N')

version = cvss4.version # 4.0
valid = cvss4.valid? # true
severity = cvss4.severity # 'Critical'
cvss31 = CvssSuite.new('CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H/E:H/RL:U/RC:U')

version = cvss31.version # 3.1
valid = cvss31.valid? # true
severity = cvss31.severity # 'Medium'

version = cvss.version # 2
valid = cvss.valid? # true
severity = cvss.severity # 'Low'
# Scores
score = cvss4.overall_score # 9.3, cvss4 only has overall score
base_score = cvss.base_score # 4.9
temporal_score = cvss.temporal_score # 3.6
environmental_score = cvss.environmental_score # 3.2
overall_score = cvss.overall_score # 3.2
# Available options
access_vector = cvss.base.access_vector.name # 'Access Vector'
remediation_level = cvss.temporal.remediation_level.name # 'Remediation Level'
access_vector.values.each do |value|
value[:name] # 'Local', 'Adjacent Network', 'Network'
value[:abbreviation] # 'L', 'A', 'N'
value[:selected] # false, true, false
end
# Selected options
cvss.base.access_vector.selected_value[:name] # Adjacent Network
cvss.temporal.remediation_level.selected_value[:name] # Temporary Fix
# Exceptions

valid = cvss.valid? # false
version = cvss.version # will throw CvssSuite::Errors::InvalidVector: Vector is not valid!
cvss.base_score # will throw CvssSuite::Errors::InvalidVector: Vector is not valid!

version = cvss.version # 2
valid = cvss.valid? # false
cvss.base_score # will throw CvssSuite::Errors::InvalidVector: Vector is not valid!
Known Issues
There is a possibility of implementations generating different scores (+/- 0,1) due to small floating-point inaccuracies. This can happen due to differences in floating point arithmetic between different languages and hardware platforms.
