How many main score areas are there in the CVSS?

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a framework for rating the severity of security vulnerabilities. CVSS provides three main score areas: Base, Temporal, and Environmental.

Base Scoreevaluates the intrinsic qualities of a vulnerability.

Temporal Scorereflects the characteristics of a vulnerability that change over time.

Environmental Scoreconsiders the specific impact of the vulnerability on a particular organization, tailoring the Base and Temporal scores according to the importance of the affected IT asset.References:
