I think the ball is on the CNA: Hackerone side to get it published to
MITRE, so that they can show it up on their page.

CNAs are provided with weekly reports by the root CNA: MITRE, which lists
Reserved But Public "RBP" CVEs owned by that CNA, irrespective of whether
the CVE was assigned on distros list or elsewhere. That closes the reminder
loop.

There's no pull request for CVE-2020-8177 at
https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelist/pulls
We cannot determine if they used the alternative, web form:
https://cveform.mitre.org/

You may want to reach Hackerone from the CNA contacts
&lt;https://cve.mitre.org/cve/request_id.html#cna_participants&gt;, for this
exception of delay.

Most of the above is once again too specific to the given CVE ID,
whereas we need a general understanding of whether the task Xiao
proposes and volunteers for is worthwhile or not.  I'd appreciate a
direct answer to that.

Do I interpret this paragraph correctly as implying the answer is no? -

CNAs are provided with weekly reports by the root CNA: MITRE, which lists
Reserved But Public "RBP" CVEs owned by that CNA, irrespective of whether
the CVE was assigned on distros list or elsewhere. That closes the reminder
loop.

In other words, CNAs receive their reminders from MITRE weekly, so
there's no need for anyone else reminding them, correct?  However, can
it happen that MITRE wouldn't recognize a CVE ID as "Reserved But
Public", continuing to treat it as merely reserved, in which case there
would be no reminder to correct that?  Could Xiao help with this?
