The v3.0.0 development version is currently using https://github.com/memory/python-dpkg to compare debian versions, however, there is a bug in the way python-dpkg compares versions. Inaccurate version comparisons will result in inaccurate scan results. To resolve this, either

A) Resolve the bug in python-dpkg and thoroughly inspect it for any more bugs that may be hiding.
B) Factor out the debian version comparison in review-tools into a standalone library that can be leveraged by both review-tools and CVEScan.

python-dpkg 1.5.0 has been released and should have resolved this bug. Thank you for pointing it out!
