Just played around with adding CVE scores to my thingy. Clicked through a few issues and lost all motivation again :/ That is really the most challenging issue IMO
<gchristensen>
what caused you to lose motivation, do you think?
<andi->
First seeing plenty of perfect scores (10) and then seeing what a mess it is to get any reasonable information about them.
<andi->
well more like 9.8, 10 seems to be really rare
<gchristensen>
right :?
<gchristensen>
yeah... CVEs are so hard :(
<andi->
And that I should ignore packages that are marked as broken... e.g. hhvm
<andi->
On the other hand it feels good to see how many things were already fixed but just didn't get a channel bump yet :-)
<gchristensen>
oh yeah that sounds pretty good
<samueldr>
8 days gap ought to do it
<andi->
and many false positives since someone tags all those jenkins plugins wrongly..
<samueldr>
hm?
<samueldr>
something that we can fix or from your data set?
<andi->
seems like it is wrong in the NVD database
<andi->
`Jenkins InfluxDB` is being added as `InfluxDB`
<samueldr>
InfluxDB Plugin stored target passwords unencrypted in its global configuration file on the Jenkins master. These credentials could be viewed by users with access to the master file system.
<samueldr>
sounds like jenkins specific issue
<andi->
yeah but if you look at the bottom it shows you the CPE strings
<andi->
and that just shows the `influxdb` product in some weird configuration with a (free text?) field saying jenkins
<andi->
I can not infer the "vendor" from within nixpkgs so I can not avoid that kind of false positives. And if the vendor would also provide a plugin the I still wouldn't be able to distinguish between a plugin for something else or the actual thing :/
<samueldr>
what's eficode?
<andi->
some vendor
<andi->
e.g. a person, company, non-profit, …
<samueldr>
right
<samueldr>
so it's "influxdb from eficode, and look here we have that string for jenkins"?
