I agree in principle, however in practice this is a lot of work (as you well know =). I guess my question/concern would be is who does the research to verify all this, and what if it varies by version (i.e. it is 6 separate issues in an older version but the newer version combined some code into a common library for example so it's only a single issue, but with multiple avenues of attack/etc.). In other words a lot of potential work.
I did some research, with details available at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=773726#c2 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=773726#c3 In my opinion only 1 and 2 (ie ws bug 6663 and ws bug 6670) should be allocated a CVE. Others are application crashes. -- Huzaifa Sidhpurwala / Red Hat Security Response Team
