Problem
The following advisory was intentionally marked as False-Positive over 2 years ago due to GitLab internal feedback:
- https://advisories.gitlab.com/pkg/npm/select2/CVE-2016-10744/
- https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/gemnasium-db/-/issues/205+s
Looking at this advisories' page, a customer has no way of knowing it was withdrawn.
Solution
Advisories that do not match any version (eg. <0) should have a false-positive banner on their advisories.gitlab.com page.
