I've never thought to put CVE-IDs I'm credited for reporting on my resume. Is that...a thing? Do tech employers (outside of security consultancies) even know what a CVE-ID is?
What else should a person put on their resume (beyond job experience) when applying for security roles? Patents? Education? Open Source Projects? I would think that CVE-IDs would certainly lend color, and probably credibility to the resume of someone applying for a security position, particularly if the CVE-ID (which has some amount of peer review) was associated with something interesting or relevant to the position being applied for.
I'm at Basho (we make the Riak database) in a non-security role, and I pay attention to CVE-IDs. They'll stick with me and make me remember a resume better, and improve somebody's chances of advancing to an interview, and give me something to ask about during an interview.
If your resume has them, the others don't, and the boss is knowledgeable or curious ... then it could help you stand out. I would think it would look very good for a developer position, especially at a place that makes high reliability and/or network facing products.
