      I had LibreOffice version 6.1.4 installed and today I installed an update to 6.1.4 Rev. 2.
      This is detected by VulnDetect as 6.1.4.
      So I looked in Help -> About and saw the following version number: 6.1.4.2.

      Same for an older version of LibreOffice that I have also installed.
      Detected version by VulnDetect: 6.0.6.
      Displayed version inside the app: 6.0.6.2

      Tell me if you need more information.

      Suggestion
      Please show the version number in 4 digit format.
      You see this is needed (there are two different versions available: 6.1.4 and 6.1.4.2)

        I can see you are right. Everywhere on the site they seem to refer to versions with three levels only, but the installer and the product itself does use all four.

        I will give it some thought, as this is different from what is used on their security page:

          I know it is complicated to find a solution that fits all products.
          But I would use the version number displayed in the app in Help -> About
