Use CVE-2016-6131.

As far as we can tell, there was only one vulnerability reported here.
Yes. This was a CVE request for only one vulnerability that was reported here.

We don't understand the reference to "All vulnerabilities were found
with" - this seems to imply more than one vulnerability. Also, we
don't understand the parenthesized numbers such as "No demangling of
untrusted binaries (2)" in the Subject line, and "Libiberty Demangler
segfaults (6)" and "Fix fir PR71696 in Libiberty Demangler (6)" in the
references.
Moreover, this was also meant as a small update on the progress of the other vulnerabilities in GNU Libiberty that have 
been reported and assigned CVEs previously (and assigning credit to the tool we used; 
http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q2/238).

Thanks!
