Research direction
Begin with CVECheckService.retrieveVulnerabilityData at line 312, then follow fetchCves, getCveUpgradeIssues, and batchGetCVEIssues to reproduce the GitHub Security Advisory request in the Java upgrade flow. Done means the handshake failure has a confirmed cause and the CVE check no longer surfaces this uncaught exception, with behavior verified through the affected flow.
