Subject: [PATCH] cve-check-map: Add 'cannot-backport' to status map
Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2024 21:44:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240724044412.3343884-1-dnagodra@cisco.com> (raw)
- Sometimes, the difference in the codebase of the fixed CVE's version
and the current version of the package is huge.
- This would make the backporting of the CVE not a feasible option.
- And due to other dependencies and limitations, the upgrade of the
package might not be possible as well.
- This commit would allow users to add a description via CVE_STATUS and
still show the CVE as vulnerable.
