Abstract
Documentation:
The ReferenceType complex type links the OVAL Definition to a definitive external reference. For example, CVE Identifiers for vulnerabilities. The intended purpose for this reference is to link the definition to a variety of other sources that address the same issue being specified by the OVAL Definition. The required source attribute specifies where the reference is coming from. In other words, it identifies the reference repository being used. The required ref_id attribute is the external id of the reference. The optional ref_url attribute is the URL to the reference.
