While doing the Bulk Edit for false positive on VIT's the state of Remediation task is coming as open.

I checked in all places and I don't find any difference with respect to OOB.

  • UI Action: "Bulk Edit"
  • UI Page: "BulkVulnUpdateDialog"
  • Script Include: "VulnerabilityAsyncJobAJAX"
  • Script Include: "VulnerabilityAsyncJobUtil"

I don't know what will be exact reason for this.

Hi Sneh - I'm not sure if this is the workflow you are trying to accomplish, but thought I'd share this in case it's helpful. When bulk edit is used to mark multiple vulnerable items as false positive, a remediation task is created with the selected vulnerable items and the task is sent for approval. More information can be found in the following product documentation:

Hey @Sneh, 

as @Sarah Wood  said before, when using the bulk edit to request a false positive, the Vulnerable Items are moved to a unified Remediation Task and the request is created on the task level. 

Important here: please make sure that you have active and correctly configured rules for the remediation task false positive approvals, otherwise the request will automatically reject, and the state of the remediation task will immediately reflect as "open" again.
