Currently the MissingCVEPatch check will complain if another
identifiers than a CVE-YYYY-XXXX is passed after the 'CVE: '
trailer in the patch header introduced in [1].
If a package 'foo' defines the following:
FOO_IGNORE_CVES += GHSA-abcd-1234-efgh
And correctly references it in a patch header:
CVE: GHSA-abcd-1234-efgh
check-package will report the following:
package/foo/foo.mk: patch file '0001-some-patch.patch' is missing 'CVE:' tag
While we could argue that GHSA identifier should not be present in the
'IGNORE_CVES' variable, it's still valuable for users to have a way to
correctly ignore and link a patch for their vulnerability report.
From our point of view it allows us to track GHSA vulnerabilities that
could later be assigned a CVE so we can update the IGNORE_CVES variable.
This commit relaxes the constraint on the 'CVE' trailer to just check
for the presence of any identifier. We still only allow alphanumerical
characters and dashes, to be sure that any tooling that uses the
identifiers won't break.

- keep the regex but allow any alphanumerical string;
- add a test that FOO:123 doesn't match]

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
