No, no, there was apparently a misunderstanding.
I was unclear, sorry.

What I meant is that some CVE numbers are not mentioned in the DSA, but
have already been recorded in the tracker as fixed by the DSA itself.
When I saw these additional CVE numbers on the tracker, I thought that
they could be some of the CVE-less vulnerabilities mentioned in the DSA
(which were in the meanwhile assigned a CVE id).
By reading the CVE descriptions, I managed to map the additional CVE
numbers to the CVE-less issues, but two seem to be still missing.

I hope it's clearer, now.

Perfect, that's all I wanted to know.
Bye.
