You are correct, this msg is confusing. Only CVEs affecting consul have
been created this time.

 Is there any reason why

This is a bug in our service. Since these are the 3 upstream
repositories we are monitoring, the template msg is incorrectly adding
the 3 when in this case, it should only list consul. I will add this bug
to our queue to fix it asap.
