After a pull request has been submitted, the CVE Team will review the
submission and work with you to resolve issues. Then the CVE Team
will merge the updated files into the "master" branch and use the
supplied information to update the associated entries in the CVE List
itself.
After a pull request has been submitted, several checks will be
launched automatically, such as to perform schema validation and check
ownership. The checks may add comments and labels to the pull request
and, by default, Github should notify you via email of those
