We do provide the data for vulnerabilities, at secdb.alpinelinux.org. The security tracker is a tool for the security team to remediate vulnerabilities. The data provided by it is not particularly useful nor intended for consumption by people other than the security team and alpine package maintainers: it generates reports for possible CVEs to review and possibly mitigate in the package collection. The presence of data in the tracker that is not present in the secdb (either as an ACK or NAK) is just an indication that there is a vulnerability to investigate, not that anything has been confirmed or denied. Really, the data is not relevant as a product for end users to consume. The secdb outlines what package versions fix what CVEs, and what CVEs have been formally NAKed. Speculative data from a distribution-wide vulnerability scanning tool is not useful data to be making security-related decisions with. |
