This should probably be "4.0.7", Similar to how it looks in https://github.com/github/advisory-database/pull/8095/changes
And I don't know what that last_known_affected_version_range means underneath.

I think I put that in the "Suggest improvements for this vulnerability" form correctly, but maybe I messed up, so whoever reviews this, maybe double check.

you're right, the 4.0.x range should be fixed in 4.0.7 (mirroring the web-token/jwt-library entry in this same advisory). I've opened #8629 with the corrected ranges and without the leftover database_specific block, in case it
helps the curation team — happy to have either PR land, as long as the false-positive <= 4.1.6 / no patched version entry gets fixed.
