CWE-592: DEPRECATED: Authentication Bypass Issues is a Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) entry maintained by MITRE. This weakness has been deprecated because it covered redundant concepts already described in CWE-287.
A CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) like CWE-592 describes a category of software weakness — the underlying flaw type. A CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) identifies a specific, real-world vulnerability in a particular product. In short, a CWE is the kind of mistake, and a CVE is an instance of that mistake being found in software.
