Two recipes could not see CVEs at all. mattermost-lts has an empty GitHub advisory feed and renders its security bulletins client-side, so a text sweep finds nothing; mumble publishes nothing anywhere the registry points. Both returned '?' - nothing measured - which is honest but useless. NVD is CPE-indexed and carries structured version ranges, so it answers where the vendor does not. Declared per recipe as 'nvd-cpe: <image> = <cpe:2.3:...>'. mattermost-lts 10.5.0 -> 10.12.4 165 CVEs mattermost-lts 10.11.22 -> 10.12.4 0 CVEs (measured, not unknown) mumble 1.3.0 -> 1.6.870 2 CVEs Both NVD range forms are used: versionEndExcluding is a patched version; versionEndIncluding means the fix version is unpublished but the upgrade delivers it whenever it crosses X. That 0 for the actual mattermost upgrade is the interesting one, and it needed a new rule to be correct: a fix on the line you upgrade FROM was already yours. mattermost patches every maintained line at once, so 10.11.22 -> 10.12.4 crosses 10.12.1 while 10.11.22 already had the 10.11.4 backport. Without the rule the scan claimed 12 CVEs the upgrade did not deliver. The rule is skipped for placeholders: '7.4.X' parses to a bare 7.4 and would read as 'already fixed at 7.4', which silently dropped redis CVE-2024-46981 and took discourse 140 -> 139 before I caught it. 79 tests. discourse 140 / gitea 2 / mailu 2 / keycloak 12 / plausible 6 unchanged. Fleet sweep: 0 recipes with no usable CVE source, down from 2.
Upstream release-notes registry
Per-recipe maps of where each image's release notes / changelog live. This is the cc-ci analog of
recipe-maintainer's recipe-info/<recipe>/upstream.md: the /recipe-upgrade skill reads
cc-ci-plan/upstream/<recipe>.md so it doesn't have to rediscover the upstream source for every image
on every weekly run — discover once, persist, reuse.
How /recipe-upgrade uses it (step 1)
- Read
cc-ci-plan/upstream/<recipe>.md. - If it's missing, or an image in the recipe's
compose.ymlisn't covered (new/renamed service), discover the upstream project + releases page for each uncovered image (WebSearch the image → its GitHub/source repo → its releases/changelog page), then write/update this file and commit it (git -C /srv/cc-ci-orch add cc-ci-plan/upstream/<recipe>.md && commit && push). - Fetch the release notes from these URLs between the current → target version of each service.
Format (one file per recipe)
# Upstream sources — <recipe>

## Standing notes
- <recipe-specific upgrade gotchas worth remembering between runs, e.g. "n8n: postgres volume path
changed from /var/lib/postgresql/data to /var/lib/postgresql in 2.2x">
Keep URLs canonical (the project's own releases/CHANGES page, not a mirror). Add a Standing notes section for migration gotchas you only want to learn once.
