Many of the vex entries have open ended verisons like "x.x-today", that made sense when first written, but time has passed.

Leveraging some AI support, and some manual poking I went and update the "today" to which specific of version of Solr is actually impacted by the vulnerablity.

I eliminated the tika core entry, it was VERY vague, and I couldn't map it any real CVE. The other velocity tools entry I tied it to the underlying struts cves that are what was triggering the vulnerablity.

Pull request overview

This PR updates Solr VEX (Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange) markdown entries to replace open-ended “today/present” version ranges with concrete Solr version bounds as of June 2026, and removes/reworks a couple of overly vague dependency notes.

Changes:

  • Replace open-ended versions: values across many VEX entries with bounded ranges (e.g., …-8.x, ≤ 9.0, etc.).
  • Remove the old tika-core and velocity-tools catch-all entries; introduce a new Struts-1/velocity-tools transitive-dependency VEX note tied to specific CVEs.
  • Add/extend explanatory text in a couple of entries to justify the revised affected-version bounds.
