Part I: Research Report

Write a formal document (3,000 words minimum) based on your research on vulnerabilities discovered in 2017.

1. You should find three vulnerabilities in three severity levels - one in Medium, one in High and one in Critical.

2. Derive their CVSS 3.0 Base scores using the algorithm, and validate your calculation results by comparing yours and the ones produced by the online calculator.

3. Compare the three vulnerabilities with our examples (Spectre, Meltdown, EternalBlue), list the similarities and differences.

4. Calculate the CVSS Temporal and Environmental scores of your 3 vulnerabilities by using the online calculator. (Assume that your IT infrastructure is used in an SME environment with less than 50 employees.)

5. Set up a mitigation strategy based on your calculation results obtained in Step 4, and prioritize your countermeasures.

6. Demonstrate the exploitation of one of the vulnerabilities you identified.

7. Draw conclusions of your findings and elaborate the impact of your work.

Part II: 5 minute Video Presentation

Prepare a video demonstration of the identified vulnerability. In this video, you should explain what the vulnerbility is, how this vulnerability can be exploited, and how this vulnerability can be patched. In the video, you should have the voice recorded that clearly explains the demo. The video should be stored in the Deakin University's one drive.

Note that it is your responsibility to make sure that the video is clear and the voice is clearly audible and understandable. Further, ensure that the link provided is working properly, and your supervisor can access them.
