Anton,

Dave is probably speaking about how CVSS is a weak measurement of
vulnerabilities. Microsoft Press has documented in dealing with
threats vs. vulnerabilities in "Threat Modeling" and "Hunting Security
Bugs".

For example, Microsoft introduced STRIDE (threat-modeling) to augment
their DREAD vulnerability rating system. You may also want to look at
non-Microsoft threat-modeling such as CIAA or Trike (presented at
ToorCon 2005).

Also, speaking directly to CVSS is a blog entry and comment on OSVDB's blog:
