Most of those should be in the NVD database and not included this way.
While working on the new featcher, I was also considering a multiple
fetcher configuration. Originally to allow OSV and such. But also,  an
additional "fetcher" could contain entries where we want to override the
NVD database. IMO that would be a cleaner solution and would allow safer
include of the complete fix file, because it will be always checked to the
actual package version. What do you think about it? Worth a POC?

Kind regards,
