I apologize for the delay in the update. I had it drafted, but I never hit send.
We confirmed that CVE-2017-3447 has not been assigned by Oracle. It has been rejected.
Microsoft has updated their Security Update Guide < https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/ > such that: What was 2017-3347 is now ADV170005. What was 2017-2605 is now ADV170004.
We haven't see a response from the folks at Jenkins. But if Red Hat can please send us an update for the CVE entry for CVE-2017-2605 so we can publish it, we can add a note to that entry indicating the error to reduce further confusion.
Thanks.

MITRE,
Now that we've had a week to digest this, we have seen dozens of mainstream news articles use 2017-3447 and 2017-2605 specifically as CVE identifiers. Has MITRE determined if these are a collision, or if they can and will be REJECTed in advance?
I exchanged several emails with MSRC last week about this, and it concluded with them saying they would pass along my feedback and suggestion to use a more distinct ID scheme. Hopefully, we'll see something different for May.
