vy opened a new pull request, #1948:
URL: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/pull/1948

   This implements the following changes in [the security 
page](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/security.html):
   
   * Switched from [MITRE](https://cve.mitre.org) to 
[NVD](https://nvd.nist.gov/) – Both are in essence funded by the same 
organization (i.e., the U.S. Government) and contain identical data. Though 
MITRE seems dead and NVD looks alive with more bells and whistles.
   * Switched to CVSS 3.x severity and metrics
   * Improved navigation with more user-centric sections and expanded menu
   * Added _"Components affected"_ (e.g., `log4j-core`) field
   * Added _"Versions fixed"_ field
   * Removed duplicate content
   * Simplified textual content – kept basic description and mitigation 
techniques
   * Removed mitigation techniques worded as _"alternatively you can do X, but 
it won't really help"_
