Research direction

Start in CVECheckService.java at retrieveVulnerabilityData (line 312), then trace fetchCves and getCveUpgradeIssues to understand the GitHub Security Advisory API request. Reproduce the EOF failure on the reported IntelliJ, Windows, JDK, and plugin versions, and verify that vulnerability retrieval completes without the uncaught exception.
