Bug#992115:



Just to give a bit of context:

One of the problem publishing severities as-is is looking less secure 
while actually not true.
For example publishing docker images to quay.io for several distribution 
will make debian look worse than others.

Here debian reports 
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2021-33574 as High but 
this CVE only seem to affect glibc 2.32 & 2.33 while all versions of 
debian (but sid) have 2.31 or earlier so shouldn't be affected.

RedHat/Fedora bug tracker clearly stated that and Ubuntu has the CVE in 
"Triage" status so it doesn't show up in the scan report in quay.io (and 
I guess in many other scanning tool which rely on distribution security 
bug trackers)
