# Understand issue severity level

Use the color-coded CVSS severity levels to focus on the most important vulnerabilities. 

<table><thead><tr><th width="138.33333333333331">Level</th><th width="141">CVSS score</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Critical (dark red)</td><td>9-10</td><td>This may allow attackers to access sensitive data and run code on your software.</td></tr><tr><td>High (red)</td><td>7-8</td><td>This may allow attackers to access sensitive data in your software.</td></tr><tr><td>Medium (orange)</td><td>4-6</td><td>Under some conditions, this may allow attackers to access sensitive data in your software.</td></tr><tr><td>Low (green)</td><td>1-3</td><td>Your software could expose some data that allows vulnerability mapping. This can be used to chain vulnerabilities to attack your software.</td></tr><tr><td>None (gray)</td><td>0</td><td>There is no known attack risk for this software at this time.</td></tr></tbody></table>

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://helm.docs.medcrypt.com/manage-vulnerabilities/identify-and-prioritize-exploitable-vulnerabilities/understand-issue-severity-level.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
