Ahh, no idea - Just saw Debian pushing a security update for this.

The CPE was added by:

commit 7edfc478ea16a78b98a1e8172b6de3e3abed989e
Author: Heiko Thiery <heiko.thiery@gmail.com>

    package/cjson: set CJSON_CPE_ID_VALID

    cpe:2.3:a:cjson_project:cjson is a valid CPE identifier for this
    package:

And that URL indeed now only shows the davegamble:cjson entries. Care to
send a patch to update the CPE info?
