To post a comment you must log in.
HTTPS clones of ubuntu-cve-tracker are deliberately throttled, because there are some vulnerability analysis tools that clone this large repository rather than using something more appropriate like OVAL exports, and before we started throttling it our service was being routinely killed (effectively DDoSed) by these.
Can you please explain your use case so that we can suggest an appropriate workaround?
