Per the OSV schema: https://ossf.github.io/osv-schema/#aliases-field Aliases should **not** be used to refer to vulnerabilities in packages upstream or downstream in a software supply chain from the given OSV record’s affected package(s). For example, if a CVE describes a vulnerability in a language library, and a Linux distribution package contains that library and therefore publishes an advisory, the distribution’s OSV record must not list the CVE ID as an alias. Similarly, distributions often bundle multiple upstream vulnerabilities into a single record. To refer to these upstream vulnerabilities, `upstream` should be used.

…lated ID for React upstream CVE-2025-55182 Per the OSV schema: https://ossf.github.io/osv-schema/#aliases-field Aliases should **not** be used to refer to vulnerabilities in packages upstream or downstream in a software supply chain from the given OSV record’s affected package(s). For example, if a CVE describes a vulnerability in a language library, and a Linux distribution package contains that library and therefore publishes an advisory, the distribution’s OSV record must not list the CVE ID as an alias. Similarly, distributions often bundle multiple upstream vulnerabilities into a single record. To refer to these upstream vulnerabilities, `upstream` should be used. However, from github#6507 we see that the GitHub advisory database doesn't currently support `upstream` so we'll add a `releated` ID instead.
