docs(issues): ISSUE-166, security annotation primitives read back as 0 / false when unset - #496
Merged
Conversation
…0 / false when unset Egeria's SecurityFinding/Vulnerability/SecurityPosture annotation properties classes declare cvssScore, exploitAvailable, patchAvailable and the posture counts as Java primitives, so an unset value is indistinguishable from 0 or false (confirmed live 2026-10-26). Records the question for the Egeria team (boxed types with a null default) and the pyegeria display workaround in PR odpi#495. Added to EGERIA_OPEN_ISSUES.md as well.

SecurityFindingAnnotationProperties,VulnerabilityAnnotationPropertiesandSecurityPostureAnnotationPropertiesdeclarecvssScore,exploitAvailable,patchAvailableand the posture counts as Java primitives. An unset value therefore reads back as 0 or false. This was confirmed live on 2026-10-26: a vulnerability created with only a severity came back withcvssScore: 0.0andexploitAvailable: false.The entry includes a question for the Egeria team: could these become boxed types with a null default? It also records the pyegeria display workaround in #495.
