Sadly a v2 -> v1 -> v2 change has yet\nanother effect which wasn't accounted for: During the first change, status\npages would be freed.  During the second change they would be allocated\nagain.  Hence across the full pair of change the addresses of the status\npages may change, rendering stale previously calculated pointers into the\nstatus array.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
