Why does it matter? I know the answer and this is a philosophical complaint, but the purpose of CVE is simply to make sure that people are talking about the same bug, not as a certification of importance or impact.
In this particular case, the poster is complaining that 3 CVEs were assigned for memory corruption vulnerabilities reachable only from the dnsmasq configuration file. I didn't read carefully, but the presumption that config file memory corruption bugs aren't vulnerabilities is problematic, because user input can find its way into configurations through templating; it depends on how innocuous the field triggering the bug is.
