Defending against exploit chains means not simply prioritizing remediation by the CVSS score of individual vulnerabilities, but examining whether a combination of "low-risk + low-risk" forms a high-risk path, and cutting off key links in the chain through means such as least privilege, disabling dangerous functions and limiting the scope of file operations.

UnverifiedIn a chained attack, a single vulnerability often yields only limited privileges, and the attacker needs to string together privilege escalation, information leakage, persistence and other steps; RCP's design of scoring each component independently is inherently unable to express cross-component dependencies — even if every component is individually assessed as low-risk, chained together they may still constitute a complete attack chain.80% similarUnverifiedIn defense-in-depth, even if a single vulnerability is assessed as low-risk, it should be assumed that it could become a link in an attack chain.77% similarUnverifiedThe scope of a safety record is often limited to a single component, while the true harm lurks in the closure of an operation (the effect propagation chain)75% similarUnverifiedTraditional vulnerability scanning tools score on a per-repository or per-asset basis (e.g., CVSS scores) and cannot answer whether an attacker can chain multiple low-severity vulnerabilities into a complete attack chain.74% similar
