@Samk1710 Thanks , see feedback and suggestions below

Samk1710 · 2026-01-07T21:17:49Z

@ziadhany Thanks for your review.
I have updated the code as per your suggestion and feedback. Requesting a re-review. Thanks again!

ziadhany · 2026-01-08T22:32:34Z

@Samk1710, could you please also fix the CI ?

Samk1710 · 2026-01-10T00:01:17Z

Hey @ziadhany
I have updated the implementation as per your review and suggestion of os_name qualifier. Do let me know if it aligns with what you had in mind. Thanks !

Samk1710 · 2026-01-12T14:23:16Z

Hey @ziadhany
I have refactored the purl as per your suggestion and pushed. Thanks for the guidance :)

Samk1710 · 2026-01-13T13:15:42Z

@Samk1710, could you please also fix the CI ?

Hey @ziadhany could you kindly run the checks. I have fixed the import ordering. Thanks.

ziadhany

@Samk1710 , The code looks good. I think we just need some refinement of the package URL and the affected and fixed versions.

Samk1710 · 2026-01-21T12:40:48Z

Hey @ziadhany

I have rectified the PURL. Also added more data to test each OS type with their respective PURLs.
After some digging in I also found the documentation for statuses and also implemented them.
Please see #2104 (comment)

Kindly review the changes when you have time. Thanks.

Samk1710 · 2026-01-26T19:45:44Z

Hey @ziadhany
As per discussions in the weekly meet, I have implemented the Impact Packages and also mapped the version range.
Kindly take a look at them and let me know if anything has to be improved. Please review when time. Thanks.

ziadhany

The code looks good, just a few nits.

Samk1710 · 2026-02-02T22:33:45Z

The code looks good, just a few nits.

Thanks @ziadhany
I’ve addressed the review comments and pushed the latest changes.
Please let me know if anything else needs adjustment.

Samk1710 · 2026-02-19T17:08:22Z

Hey @ziadhany. Could you kindly have a look at the changes when time. Thanks.

ziadhany

@Samk1710, just a few nits to improve code quality and update the importer to use AdvisoryDataV2. Overall, the code looks good.

Samk1710 · 2026-02-24T19:30:58Z

@ziadhany Done with the changes. Please have a look when time

Samk1710 · 2026-10-02T18:56:40Z

The new endpoint at https://tuxcare.com/cve-tracker/api/cves/export/json is workable although the PURL resolution might be a bit difficult.

Old advisory

  {
    "cve": "CVE-2023-52922",
    "os_name": "CentOS 8.5 ELS",
    "project_name": "kernel",
    "version": "4.18.0",
    "score": "7.8",
    "severity": "HIGH",
    "status": "Released",
    "last_updated": "2025-05-21 01:43:28.677045"
  }

Sample New Advisory

{
  "cve": "CVE-2026-59797",
  "product": "CentOS 6 ELS",
  "component": "httpd",
  "version": "2.2.15",
  "severity": "Critical",
  "status": "In Research",
  "published_date": "2026-10-01",
  "type": null
}

Currently we were using in https://github.com/aboutcode-org/vulnerablecode/pull/2104/changes#diff-11b0ceee4d3520186d775bd38d8898718ba0b40cea97007fff7dfe0f1fa5737a

        os_mapping = {
            "ubuntu": ("deb", "ubuntu"),
            "debian": ("deb", "debian"),
            "centos": ("rpm", "centos"),
            "almalinux": ("rpm", "almalinux"),
            "rhel": ("rpm", "rhel"),
            "oracle": ("rpm", "oracle"),
            "cloudlinux": ("rpm", "cloudlinux"),
            "alpine": ("apk", "alpine"),
            "unknown": ("generic", "tuxcare"),
            "tuxcare": ("generic", "tuxcare"),
        }

But now Tuxcare has 6814 unique products. This mapping alone will not suffice. See the gist for product frequencies here https://gist.github.com/Samk1710/0229b9dd41a66ba414dbed0464f24428.

Also CVE-2017-20162 alone has 30149 records which is unusual.

These are the top CVEs and their count

CVE-2017-20162: 30149
CVE-2017-16137: 29674
CVE-2017-20165: 29629
CVE-2018-8088: 27253
CVE-2025-67735: 22861
CVE-2025-55163: 22797
CVE-2025-58056: 22536
CVE-2025-58057: 22260

Reply from Tuxcare Team

Hello Sampurna,

Thank you for your time! Addressing your inquiries:
The old endpoint cve.tuxcare.com/els/download-json is indeed permanently discontinued in favor of the export at https://tuxcare.com/cve-tracker/api/cves/export/json. The full file is around 3 GB, regenerated twice a day; with filters, up to 10,000 rows.
Regarding PURLs: the export has no official mapping and carries no PURL or ecosystem fields. For that, the best source is our OSV feed, published on osv.dev under the TuxCare ecosystem. Every record there includes PURLs (for example pkg:rpm/tuxcare/httpd?distro=centos-6) and fixed versions, across rpm, deb, Maven, npm, PyPI and Packagist. The full set can be downloaded from https://osv-vulnerabilities.storage.googleapis.com/TuxCare/all.zip. Keep in mind it only contains released fixes, and a few products in the export, such as Amazon Linux 2 ELS and CloudLinux ELS, aren't in it yet.
On the record counts: the export mixes our ELS distro data with our open-source library monitoring data. In the second set, "product" is an upstream project (Babel, Angular, React) and "component" is one of its dependencies, which is where most of the 6,814 products and the 30,000 rows for CVE-2017-20162 come from. Those rows are distinct, so we'd suggest keying on CVE, product, component and version together rather than deduplicating on CVE alon.

Please let us know if that helps!
Best Regards,
Misael Ramirez | Senior Support Engineer | TuxCare Enterprise Support
