We’re pleased to announce the new CVE Statistics page on OpenCVE 🎉

This new page provides a comprehensive view of key metrics and trends across the CVE ecosystem, helping users gain valuable insights into vulnerabilities over time.

#### Why CVE Statistics Matter

As the number of CVEs continues to grow each year, understanding their distribution, severity, and impact becomes crucial.

Whether you’re a security researcher, a developer, or part of a SOC team, this new feature offers a detailed perspective to help you prioritize and act on the data.

#### What is Included?

The [Statistics page](https://app.opencve.io/statistics) includes the following data visualizations and insights:

* **Yearly CVE Counts**: See how many CVEs are published each year, with trends that reveal the evolving landscape of vulnerabilities.
* **Cumulative CVE Counts**: Track the total number of CVEs over time, showcasing the exponential growth of vulnerabilities.
* **CVSS Categorized Scores**: Explore the distribution of CVEs across severity levels (Low, Medium, High, and Critical) for different CVSS versions, including the latest CVSS 4.0.
* **Top Vendors and Products**: Identify which vendors and products have the most reported CVEs.

#### Key Highlights from the Data
