Are you sure? By way of example, take a look at CVE-2012-0833, the
description listed on the web page is much longer than in the JSON.

More logical, uses less bytes for the string "package".

Ah, the first table is the version numbers of the package in each
distribution, fixed or not. The second table is fixed version numbers.

To clarify, I was suggesting keep the version numbers in the
"repositories" section but only keep fixed version numbers in the
"releases" section. Also, the fixed version numbers appear to be
incorrect, for example the website says CVE-2012-6656 was fixed in
eglibc 2.13-38+deb7u7 but the json says it was fixed in 2.13-38+deb7u8.
