CVSSv4 Reference Score Discrepancies #3

Description

@steadytao

While qualifying my own CVSSv4 implementation, I found that 159 entries in the retained reference-scores corpus disagree with the later RedHat calculator revision.

Observed discrepancies:

  • 159 affected corpus entries
  • 157 unique vectors
  • every score changes by exactly +0.1
  • no resulting severity changes

The differences appear to follow the floating-point adjustment introduced by RedHatProductSecurity/cvss-v4-calculator@7faaaa5. I have retained an executable generator which verifies the pinned calculator and corpus by exact length and SHA-256 before reproducing the 157 corrections

Is reference-scores expected to be updated for the later rounding behaviour or is the older output intentional?
