Thisonly requires a new helper function to infer the register type from theset datatype so this conditional check can be removed. Otherwise,pointer to chain object can be leaked through the registers. ### POC #### Reference No PoCs from references. #### Github - https://github.com/fkie-cad/nvd-json-data-feeds
