How to delete history of Active Protections's "Detected vulnerabilies" ?
Active Protection keeps the list of Detected Vulnerabilities, even if they are no longer topical. I don't need to be informed about VLC vulnerabilities that have been patched ages ago.
Is there a possibility to delete this list and to let it scan to see what is an issue right now? It seems that it can't be done from the program (or I did not find it).
Kind regards,
Thorsten

Hm, this does not happen in my case. When I rerun the scan then the same vulnerabilities appear again. E.g., entry CVE-2019-12874 still appears after rescan, although it only applies to VLC up to versions 3.0.7 - and I have version 3.0.18 right now! To further test this I deleted my VLC installation (meaning: I put it in a password protected zip container and removed the files in the program directory), but after rescan all the VLC vulnerabilites appear again.
What is the problem here?

I can only suspect that the scan is finding an older copy of VLC on your computer somewhere other than where the later version was installed? I have seen similar behaviour from other programs in the past!
