      The affected CPEs found inĀ rhel-7.7-e4s.oval.xml.bz2 contain CPEs for previous RHEL 7 releases.

      Here is the affected CPE list for every advisory in https://www.redhat.com/security/data/oval/v2/RHEL7/rhel-7.7-e4s.oval.xml.bz2:

         <affected_cpe_list>
          <cpe>cpe:/a:redhat:rhel_extras_sap_e4s:7.7</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/a:redhat:rhel_extras_sap_hana_e4s:7.7</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.6</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.6::server</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.7</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.7::server</cpe>
         </affected_cpe_list>
      

      I do not believe that these two items should be listed:

          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.6</cpe>
          <cpe>cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.6::server</cpe>
      

      Both RHSA-2020:2485 and RHSA-2020:3592 appear in the rhel-7.7-e4s.oval.xml.bz2 OVAL archive with cpe:/o:redhat:rhel_e4s:7.6 listed in the affected_cpe_list, but these advisories are actually not for RHEL 7.6 and do not appear in rhel-7.6-e4s.oval.xml.bz2.

      Previously the CPE lists in these major.minor OVAL archives only contained CPEs relevant for each specific release.
