Pull request overview

This PR corrects version information in a GitHub Security Advisory for CVE-2024-6717, a path escape vulnerability in HashiCorp Nomad. The update aligns the advisory with the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) data by fixing incorrect version ranges and adding missing affected package entries.

Changes:

  • Updated the vulnerability description to clarify affected versions
  • Corrected the fixed version from 1.11.1 to 1.6.13 in the first affected package entry
  • Added two new affected package entries for fixes in versions 1.7.10 and 1.8.2

The version range with 'introduced': '0' and 'fixed': '1.6.13' is misleading because it suggests all versions from 0 to 1.6.13 are affected. According to the description, only versions 1.6.12 up to 1.7.9 and 1.8.1 are affected. The 'introduced' field should specify '1.6.12' instead of '0' to accurately represent the affected version range.

The version range with 'introduced': '0' and 'fixed': '1.7.10' is incorrect. Based on the description stating that versions 1.6.12 up to 1.7.9 are affected, this range should have 'introduced': '1.7.0' (or the appropriate starting version for the 1.7.x series) rather than '0'.

The version range with 'introduced': '0' and 'fixed': '1.8.2' is inaccurate. According to the description, only version 1.8.1 in the 1.8.x series is affected. The 'introduced' field should specify '1.8.1' to correctly represent that only this specific version is vulnerable.

I corrected the advisory. 1.6.13 and 1.7.10 are not in the the Go registry. The versions appear to be only for Nomad Enterprise, which we do not support.
