| Indicates when the manufacturer ceases any and all support of a component or service. This point in time marks a transfer of risk from the manufacturer to the consuming organisation or user of the component or service, encompassing all cybersecurity knowledge and known vulnerabilities, with no further assistance provided by the manufacturer. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This has probably been discussed before, but if endOfSupport means that the manufacturer stops accepting vulnerability reports and will not publish any new CVEs, how do you mark the "end of security updates"? There is a certain number of vulnerability reports, which are "UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED". These are published, but the manufacturer will never fix them.
Maybe endOfSupport should not exonerate the manufacturer from accepting vulnerability reports, which would be published until endOfLife is announced.

Continuing on from our PR here which added CLE constraints, we're now adding the specification.
We were supposed to do a Technical Choices document, but I found that it was somewhat unnecessary. Happy to add it though if we feel like its needed.
There are some places in this specification where I have a
TODOwhich I would like to discuss in the tg3 wgOriginal CLE google doc is here.
