Research direction
Start in CVECheckService.java at retrieveVulnerabilityData, fetchCves, getCveUpgradeIssues, and batchGetCVEIssues, following the stack trace from the GitHub Security Advisory API request. Reproduce the vulnerability-data lookup in the IntelliJ plugin and determine what behavior is expected when it raises java.net.ConnectException; done means the reported uncaught error is handled or otherwise resolved.
