Created a fresh Add-on using Splunk add-on builder v4.1.3 and getting check_for_vulnerable_javascript_library_usage failures in AppInspect.
Tried this suggestion https://community.splunk.com/t5/Building-for-the-Splunk-Platform/How-to-update-a-Splunk-Add-on-Build... export, delete, import and generated add-on multiple times but still the issue persists.
Please suggest a fix for this issue. Thanks.

Hi @nithesh - since your original post, we've released updates to the Splunk AppInspect API that refined the behavior of this check. If you are still having issues, please reach out to [email protected] and we'll help investigate.

Fixed this issue by doing a clean installation of the spunk addon builder (by manually deleting the directory and installing it again).
