[Buildroot] CVE-2021-4034 version range fix

[Buildroot] CVE-2021-4034 version range fix

[Thomas Petazzoni via buildroot]

Dear NVD maintainers,

CVE-2021-4034 is marked in the NVD database as affecting all versions
of the polkit project due to the following "Configuration 1":

  cpe:2.3:a:polkit_project:polkit:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*

However, as indicated in
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-4034, this issue has been
fixed in the upstream polkit project as of commit
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/polkit/polkit/-/commit/a2bf5c9c83b6ae46cbd5c779d3055bff81ded683.

In turn, this commit is integrated in polkit since version 121:

polkit$ git tag --contains a2bf5c9c83b6ae46cbd5c779d3055bff81ded683
121
122
123

So, the "Configuration 1" should be fixed to indicate that only
versions < 121 are affected. Could this be addressed in your NVD
database?

Best regards,

Thomas Petazzoni
