JetLeak Vulnerability: Remote Leakage Of Shared Buffers In Jetty Web Server

Affected versions: >=9.2.3,9.2 && <=9.2.8,9.2

I'm not exactly sure of the logic controlling the Affected versions, but 9.2.16 is not within the range of 9.2.3 <= affected versions <= 9.2.8 !

It would seem that this presents a false-positive for any 9.2.x version? I'm sure this must be a recurrence you've seen before? (Issue 143?)

(Of course, this might relate to the nature of the repository of CVEs, and not the tooling directly.)
