Corrected severity on advisory so that is it consistent with CVSS 3.1 score and CVE record

Additionally, I would like to point out that the description on the CVE record mentions that the patched version is 5.4.4 when the bug is actually fixed in version 5.4.3 as can be verified below:

Hi @protozeit,
Thank you for your patience and your contribution, the CVE record has been updated to reflect the correct vulnerable and patch versions along with the CVSS score.

Thank you @helixplant.
I think there's been a misunderstanding with the CVE record update for the CVSS. I made this PR in order to remove the CVSS 4.0 score because it was taking precedence over the CVSS 3.1 rating and making the severity go from HIGH to LOW on the advisory. This vulnerability should have HIGH severity in my opinion.

I'm not sure where the CVSS 4.0 score came from as my original vulnerability report only included the CVSS 3.1 score which evaluates the vulnerability as HIGH. Is it possible to delete the CVSS 4.0 score from the CVE record as well?

The CVSS 4.0 score is causing inconsistencies across different advisories:
