An application vulnerability is a system flaw or weakness in an application that could be exploited to compromise the security of the application. Once an attacker has found a flaw and determined how to access it, the attacker has the potential to exploit the application vulnerability to facilitate a cyber crime. Examples of security vulnerabilities: SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), credentials leakage, sensitive data exposure, broken authentication and session management and more. With help of the metric, it becomes possible to find weaknesses in code timely.

overview
The chart is composed of security vulnerabilities counted in items and displayed on Axis Y which are distributed over time (Axis X). Security Vulnerabilities are summed by unit sub-types and shown in the chart legend. Each sub-type is clickable for its series to be displayed/hidden on the chart.
