Hi @mujahed,
would you mind posting screenshots of one or two expanded results? That way I can see the fixed version and the version installed on your system

Did you checked to remove the vulnerable packages as well ? This USN Advisories are for 22.04-LTS and 20.04-LTS so i guess you have a big installation issue.

Just patching leaves the vulnerable packages on the system or even worse if you don´t reboot running this vulnerable kernels active.

Thanks for the screenshots! I was able to reproduce your issue and forwarded accordingly.

Note that the comparison logic is not within any VT / NASL script but within the notus-scanner component so adjusted the category accordingly.

I don´t know how Qualys is handling that please inform us if you still have the vulnerable software installed at the point of Greenbone scan ? That this is not a FP and legit.
