Hi Quentin,
Thanks, I agree that u-boot-common.inc is the correct location. I will move the 
mapping there and remove it from u-boot.inc, so both recipes inherit it.

u-boot:u-boot is not an NVD CPE. It comes from the authoritative CNA affected 
data for CVE-2026-29007, CVE-2026-29008, and CVE-2026-29009, where VulnCheck 
uses affected.vendor=u-boot and affected.product=u-boot.

OE-Core master’s sbom-cve-check consumes CVE List V5 affected data directly as 
well as NVD data. NVD currently also maps those three records to denx:u-boot, 
so the CNA token adds no exclusive CVEs today. Keeping it nevertheless allows 
CNA records to be matched while NVD enrichment is pending or absent. I will 
clarify that distinction in v2.
