#177 · Critical Severity: Focus on Your Most Urgent Findings First

Availability: General Availability

Your findings now carry a Critical rating, the tier above High. Escape derives Critical from the CVSS score, so your severities line up with the frameworks your remediation cycles already run on. Security teams told us a missing Critical tier kept Escape findings out of their global vulnerability reporting, so this closes that gap and lets you surface what needs attention first.

What's new:

  • Critical tier: A new top severity above High. The findings that matter most stand out at a glance.
  • CVSS-aligned: Critical is derived from the CVSS score, matching the standard the rest of your stack already uses.
  • High-confidence coverage: Critical appears on AI pentest findings and technology CVEs, where Escape validates before rating a finding Critical.
  • Drives your workflows: Filter, alert, and route Critical findings into Slack, Jira, and your other integrations.

What's next: Critical severity for DAST findings is coming next.
