The CVE is for the vulnerability enabling Inscriptions to bypass node policy (regardless of what it's set to).
There should be no reason to be angry. It's just the normal procedure for security issues

It‘s not a vulnerability nor a security issue! It’s just a use case you don’t like. That’s all, don’t pretend otherwise!
Don’t get me wrong, I also think that inscriptions are useless, but the difference is that I don’t tell people how to use bitcoin.
It’s been years since Bitcoin Core filters prevented the appearance of abuse similar to inscription, and yet I haven’t seen a single person complain about it.
Learn to read. Or code. Or whatever it is impacting your ability to understand that this IS a vulnerability.
Only in your world Luke
winning hearts and minds I see, Luke
you must be a real hoot at parties
Can I ask for clarification for what Core is vulnerable to? What are the ramifications for never fixing this vulnerability?
Bypass of datacarriersize limit using OP_FALSE,OP_IF
Ramifications are that datacarriersize, an important node policy parameter, is bypassable. I.e. a bug that makes an option in core not behave as intended.

I can read and I can code. That’s why I can say without doubts that inscriptions is not a vulnerability.

You just don't know what you're talking about. Allowing anyone to insert that much malicious code is a vulnerability. Whether jpegs or something more malicious.
In his heyday John McAfee would have a ball with this. Exposing privacy and damaging security lol. You don't have a clue what the shadowy "supercoders" can do.
And we absolutely do have a say, and an obligation as to what people do with Bitcoin. Not your keys, not your Bitcoin. Not your protocol, not your Bitcoin..😐
