Hi list,

thank you all for your input so far.

It seems this thread somehow reached Mitre and my stuck CVE request got
a CVE assignment by now. The reply also contains some additional
information which I believe will be interesting to share in this thread
as well:

If you encounter unexpected behavior with CVE ID requests (e.g., one
answered and another not answered), then please report this as a
separate issue by using:

   https://cveform.mitre.org

   Request type:  Other
   Type of comment:  Issue

"Request type: Other" items are read every day.

Additionally Mitre expressed that they are working on improvements to
prevent such situations in the future.

Best Regards

Matthias
