Research direction

Read CVECheckService.retrieveVulnerabilityData at line 312 and its callers fetchCves, getCveUpgradeIssues, and batchGetCVEIssues. First reproduce the SSLHandshakeException against the GitHub Security Advisory API in the reported IntelliJ and JDK environment, then verify that vulnerability data retrieval completes without an uncaught exception.
