Just to clarify, two XSS bugs were fixed with a single release (new version 0.9.8), and then ten days later, an update was included to resolve a third XSS bug. The original CVE was originally requested for "multiple XSS vulnerabilities", but the description only covers one of them. -Dan On Mon, May 3, 2010 at 1:49 PM, Henri Salo <henri () nerv fi> wrote:

While the commit may be a few days apart for some of these, I think they can safely fall under the same CVE, unless it's standard practice to assign CVEs for each of several related minor issues.Several XSS-vulnerabilities can have one CVE at least when those vulnerabilities are fixed at the same time.In this instance, I would assign it a new ID, as the old one already exists and doesn't note both XSS fixes (it is possible someone fixed just the one XSS and not both in an update). I've CC'd Steve Christey, for a second opinion. ThanksMy sentence was for normal cases. I have seen several reports with multiple XSS-vulnerabilities. This usually is the case when someone audits web-applications. If the issue already has CVE-identifier already we should definately assign new CVE for clarity. --- Henri Salo
