Add "CVE" ecosystem for osv.dev filtering? #1796

Description

@oliverchang

Currently, it's difficult to search for converted CVE records (per https://osv.dev/blog/posts/introducing-broad-c-c++-support/) via the osv.dev UI.

Some solutions:

  • We add a special "CVE" ecosystem to enable filtering by these.
  • We add a "Git" ecosystem to enable filtering by all entries that include Git ranges. This will include more than just CVEs though (e.g. OSS-Fuzz ones).
  • We detect and tag C/C++ relevant advisories and create a "C/C++" ecosystem.

Adding an ecosystem has the additional benefit of surfacing an additional ecosystem bubble and filter on the home osv.dev UI.

Alternatively:

  • We fix search results to show advisories with IDs matching the given search prefix first.
