Those mails are all exemplary requests for CVE id's, ofcourse, but the

the work is already done. At that point, assigning a CVE id is mostly
useless and is done as a "just for the record" thing.

Whether you consider it useless or not, those are the CVE assignments that will happen on the list, aiui.

http://oss-security.openwall.org/wiki/mailing-lists/oss-security specifically says: "Public security issues only please. What you say here is public for the world to see - keep that in mind. Embargoed information is best disclosed to vendor-sec" (which should be updated to point at somewhere that actually exists).
