To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Not sure...I think adding
plexus-utils-1.5.15.jar to any Maven project should yield this.
Expected behavior
"Highest Severity" should always report the highest that was found.
Additional context
See reported details (for the relevant dependency) below. I am not sure how to correctly interpret this but I see both HIGH & CRITICAL and "Unscored".
