Summary
Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type vulnerability in Apache Answer.
This issue affects Apache Answer: through 2.0.0.
The server did not sufficiently validate user-supplied image URLs, allowing arbitrary external content to be embedded as profile images, which could expose users to unintended external requests and tracking by third-party servers. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.1, which fixes the issue.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
