Require a comment when dismissing vulnerabilities on the Vulnerability Page and Finding Modal

Problem to solve

When changing the status a vulnerability via the Vulnerability Report, a comment is required when that status is the dismissed status. However when changing the status of a vulnerability via the Vulnerability Page, comments are always optional. This creates an inconsistent experience for end-users when managing vulnerabilities.

Proposal

  1. Require comments on the Vulnerability Page when changing the status of a vulnerability to dismissed.
  2. Require comments on the Finding modal when changing the status to dismissed.
