Data quality issue with CVE-2021-42384
The CVE ID CVE-2021-42384
Describe the data quality issue observed When I searched this CVE ID from osv.dev, I got different result with NVD when echo system is GIT. Result of osv.dev
The affected version shows as below image
The affected version shows as below image
The "From" (1_18_0) and and "Up to" (1_33_1) version are both the same between osv.dev and NVD.
However, osv.dev does not link this CVE to all tag version .
For example, I use the busybox v1.30.1, the tag ID is 1_30_1 , and the GIT commit hash is as following 1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c
As you can see, CVE-2021-42384 can not be found on osv.dev and osv-scanner tool with this version.
Suggested changes to record Link CVE to all tag version between from and Up .
Hope my description is clear :) Thank you very much.
Confirmed that 1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c is tagged as 1.30.1:
$ git ls-remote https://github.com/mirror/busybox | fgrep 1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c
1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c refs/heads/1_30_stable
1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c refs/tags/1_30_1
Confirmed that querying for 1dd2685dcc735496d7adde87ac60b9434ed4a04c only returns CVE-2023-39810 and not CVE-2021-42384:

Version enumeration does not appear to be identifying 1.30.1 or the 1_30_1 tag, by the looks of it, so it stands to reason it's also not enumerating the related commits (note the lack of this in the `versions` array):

My current conclusion is that this is an issue in the version enumeration/repository analysis code and not the CVE conversion itself.
