These are functional safety problems, not security vulnerabilities.

For a product that requires functional safety, CVEs are almost entirely a marketing tool and irrelevant to the technology. Go ahead and classify them as CVEs, it means the sales people can schmooze with their customer purchasing department folks more but it's not going to affect making your airplane fly or you car drive or your cancer treatment treat any more safely.
