Description

To improve the value and therefore the visibility of our public vulnerability Database (https://docs.devguard.org/vulnerability-database/), it might be a good idea to publish Vex rules (if there are any) for vulnerabilities.

They should be marked as "Beta-Feature" and also marked with a warning sign, that the vex rules should be checked by the consumer before applying them.

If there aren't any Vex rules, there should still be a content block saying, that there aren't any Vex rules currently available.

Research direction

Start with the public vulnerability database at https://docs.devguard.org/vulnerability-database/ and locate the content or entry point that presents each vulnerability. Determine how available VEX rules and the no-rules case are represented, then verify that published rules carry a Beta-Feature label and warning for consumer review.
