Andres - we believe that there are a number of factors that influence the
'severity' of a given vulnerability, and this severity can change with time.
There are a number of network exposure management systems out there that use
different methodologies to rate vulnerabilities and present the associated
severities on a numerical scoring basis. Ncircle (www.ncircle.com) is one
of those that seem to have a good handle on it. Maybe they can provide you
with a synopsis of their methodology.

Subject: Vulnebrability level definition
I need a good definition for the levels of severity related with
vulnerabilities
I'm using Very High, High, Mid , Low, Warning
Any documentation, definition or Internet URL will be appreciated
Tks
