Hi,

The NVD entry [1] says:

  A third-party states that this vulnerability should be rejected
  because the proof of concept does not demonstrate arbitrary code
  execution and fails to complete successfully.

Following the links in the NVD entry I see what I assume is the argument
to dispute this [2] and an argument to dispute the dispute [3]. It's not
very convincing to me. I think we need a more clear reason why we want
to ignore this CVE.
