Hi, i wonder if anyone can help shed some light on what is going on here in the vulnerable software detection, for example the top one that affects
cryptography
which is showing this CVE: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-36242
All 746 hosts listed here are running Ubuntu 18.04, which according to the vendor are not vulnerable to this: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2020-36242
Is there any way for us to mark them as “not actually vulnerable” as I think this is a false positive?
Thanks 🙂

we are in the process of improving how we detect ubuntu vulnerabilities, this work will reduce false positives such as the one you saw cc @Michal Nicpon
