Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
Using a De-Jure CB to target all de-jure counties the target holds, the ticking war score for holding the war target never stopped increasing in favor of the defender, despite occupying the target counties.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Did not attempt to reproduce due to playing Iron Man and the trouble of setting up the Casus Belli.

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
The target kingdom was part of of an empire the Mongol Empire was invading at the same time. The issue persisted after the Mongols won the war.

I have attached a save game

Another instance of the same issue, no mongols involved this time:

In both cases, the CB is the De Jure CB unlocked through the Rightful Ownership innovation, and the defender ticking warscore never stopped increasing despite occupying the war target(s). This means the attacker must reach 100% before the ticking warscore reaches too high, or the only way to win is to capture the enemy ruler or occupy their entire realm. It also means that with this bug in play, occupying the war target specifically is irrelevant to winning the war.
