Hello,

I am trying to fix an error in for an inherited add-on that i am maintaining.

category: app_cert_validation
description: Detect usage of JavaScript libraries with known vulnerabilities.
ext_data: { [+]
message_id: 7002
rule_name: Validate app certification
severity: Fatal

status: Fail
sub_category: Checks related to JavaScript usage

I checked some community questions, one of the answer mentions the below fix.

  1. Export the app from any Add-on Builder
  2. Import the app into Add-on Builder v4.1.0 or newer
  3. Download the app packaged from Add-on Builder v4.1.0 or newer

I don't have the original app export and cannot import that to new AOB. I tried importing a tgz file but that gives an error.

Is there any other way I can fix this or something else i can try?
