Regenerate via brew generate-vulns-advisories (re-land #2) - #4
Merged
Conversation
Homebrew/brew#23106 adds the exporter as a built-in dev-cmd, so drop the gem install and call brew directly. HOMEBREW_DEVELOPER is set explicitly to suppress the auto-enable warning in logs.
brew generate-vulns-advisories preserves published/ranges from existing records and never deletes (Homebrew/brew#23112), so wiping first would throw away the persisted fixed boundaries and any curated records.
