Now, we have to synthesize. Note: There is no KEV status, no EPSS, no POC mention. So we'll use standard phrases.
Let's construct each field.
product_name: "proCertum SmartSign" - the specific product. Use 1-3 words.
summary: Need to start with impact verb and product. "proCertum SmartSign allows arbitrary file execution via CPS URI due to missing schema validation." Possible summary: "proCertum SmartSign before 9.4.3.90 fails to validate the schema of Certificate Practice Statement (CPS) URIs, allowing a document recipient to be tricked into executing a local executable or opening a malicious webpage when viewing a specially crafted signed document. No authentication required; user interaction is needed to open the document." The attack vector is local? CVSS says AV:L, meaning local, but description suggests sending document to victim, so the execution occurs when victim opens it. The CVSS 4.0 has UI:A (Active), meaning
