I had a closer look on it, the way I tested was the following:
make O=../foobar  qemu_x86_64_defconfig
make O=../foobar show-info | support/scripts/cve-checker --html report.html --nvd-path nvd

That's why I didn't see this issue. However, I kept this information from
pkg-stat, but actually I don't think it has big value for a given
configuration.

I will just remove it.
