Description

The NVD has some CVEs such as https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-31115, that use the target_sw to specify the runtime (e.g. ruby, java, etc.). This can be used to populate the ecosystem used to reduce false positives in the ODC analysis. See `org.owasp.dependencycheck.data.nvd.ecosystem.CveEcosystemMapper`.
