Shows the distribution of CVSS versions over time, providing insight into the evolution of vulnerability scoring standards.

This is a static graph. It shows the distribution of CVSS severity scores for CVSS 3.x and 4.0, which shows that there is not an even breakdown of the various scores. Part of the reason for this but definitely not all, is that there are 101 (0.0 to 10.0 in increments of 0.1) possible values, which is not evenly divisible by five.

Shows the distribution of the delta between CVSS and EPSS scores, normalized to a 0-100 percent scale. A higher number is more different. Once you see this reaching more than 50% it implies that the bulk of CVSS scores are worse than flip of a coin in terms of likelihood of matching the likeihood according to EPSS. Only scored vulnerabilities are included.

Shows the distribution of CVSS scores that are overrepresented in the data, providing insight into which scores seem to be favored. The higher the number the less likely that it matches the probabilistic distribution of CVSS scores based on the probability of landing on any given score. The way to read this is that for every 1 possible mathematical combinations that will cause someone to land on any given CVSS score there is Y number of CVEs. If CVSS scores were equally likely there would be little to no deviation in scores. Only scored vulnerabilities are included.

Shows the overlap of CVEs that have been scored by NVD or by CISA or the delegate CNA. Note that this does not include CVEs that have not been scored by either.

Shows the coverage of NVD scores in the data vs CVEs with no CVSS score. The closer to 100% the better the coverage of scored CVEs by NVD.
