This implements the following changes in the security page:

  • Switched to using the Maven version range syntax to denote affected versions
  • Switched from MITRE to NVD – Both are in essence funded by the same organization (i.e., the U.S. Government) and contain identical data. Though MITRE seems dead and NVD looks alive with more bells and whistles.
  • Switched to CVSS 3.x severity and metrics
  • Improved navigation with more user-centric sections and expanded menu
  • Added "Components affected" (e.g., log4j-core) field
  • Added "Versions fixed" field
  • Removed duplicate content
  • Simplified textual content – kept basic description and mitigation techniques
  • Removed mitigation techniques worded as "alternatively you can do X, but it won't really help"
