We're seeing that the NVD provider has ~250000 updates to CVEs waiting for us (we usually see no more then a few dozen to few hundred), but the API is intermittent and returning 503s a lot of the time. The best guess is that there's been a large data dump upstream and their incremental API is being over leveraged while everyone works through the backlog. We've seen some success locally with more retry attempts -- this PR adds such a configuration.
