At the moment, the PatchFinder is pattern matching on the content of the thread looking for possible references that might lead to a patch. This works great in a case like the one in #10, but it becomes problematic when you are parsing changelogs and picking up stuff that is not related to the vulnerability.

Nonetheless, in some cases changelogs might actually lead us to the patch. For example, in this thread we would have picked up the JIRA ticket https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-13042 and then the PatchFinder would have been able to get to the patch commit in apache/camel#2700.

Further evaluation needs to be invested in this to assess which direction to take.
