False Positive identified.

**Automation is used to process most false positives reports**; failure to follow these guidelines will delay the process:
10+
11+
- Only enter a **single (1) Package URL**.
12+
- Only enter a **single (1) CPE or CVE**.
13+
- If filing a CPE report you do not need to add the CVEs. Note that **most reports should be for incorrectly matched CPEs**.
14+
15+
If reporting false positives for multiple PURL and/or CPE please file multiple reports.
16+

Thank you for filing a false positive report!
