To enable more flexibility within our API output we need to remove certain restrictions from the existing 2.0 API schemas.
Why does this matter?
All existing API users will need to update to the 2.1.0 /cves/ schema or later.
Many systems reference a cached or local version of a schema when
performing validation. Since the /cves/ schema prior to 2.1.0 is overly
restrictive, any system that references
an older version of the schema that contains additionalProperties: false in the locations changed may no longer validate against future 2.0 API output.
We plan to begin including new data types within the 2.0 API
output in the near future. We advise updating any schema references
within the next 30 days.
What changes were made?
