RE: CVE-2023-46749: Apache Shiro before 1.130 or 2.0.0-alpha-4, may be susceptible to a path traversal attack that results in an authentication bypass when used together with path rewriting

[Marcel Stör]

The description in the NVD is not correct. It says "Apache Shiro before 1.130" - note the missing dot. Furthermore, it's missing a "Known Affected Software Configurations" (listing CPEs) that formally declares that 1.13.0 is safe. Without it, no tool can reliably report that my project using 1.13.0 is fine.

Does Apache have a chance to get this entry corrected?
