![drybrush poster for august 2025, painted from 3,629 published cves](https://media.cvegen.art/posters/2025-08/1280.jpg?v=02d1f3e1a6)

what the poster shows: 31 days as bands of dry brush, the first day at the top. 7 ran above the 2025 average for their weekday and sweep fast and wide; the other 24 are slow, level strokes. two inks: the deep one for open-source packages, enterprise vendors, the linux kernel, browsers and ai software, the pale one for everything else.
