... from <http://cve.mitre.org/>:

    "Beginning October 19, 2005, the CVE List numbering scheme will
    undergo a one-time-only modification to replace the 'CAN' prefix
    with a 'CVE' prefix in CVE names.

    "The new numbering scheme will have the CVE prefix from the outset
    followed by 8 numerals (e.g., CVE-1999-0067) and a status line
    designating whether the name has Entry, Candidate, or Deprecated
    status. Each CVE name will continue to include a brief description
    and references.

    "Previously assigned CVE numbers will remain the same except for
    the prefix being updated and the addition of the status, e.g.,
    CAN-2005-0386 will be changed to CVE-2005-0386 with 'Candidate'
    status.

    "Links to CANs in older security advisories will be redirected on
    the CVE Web site to pages with the appropriate renumbered names."
