Barracuda vs F5
L4-L7 load balancers, ADCs and reverse proxies. Counts are scoped to this segment and the selected published-date window. F5 carries 417.5× the disclosed CVE volume of Barracuda.

Sourced from the NIST NVD; lower counts indicate a smaller disclosed vulnerability surface — not necessarily lower risk.
