Fuzzy Matching as project setting instead of global
Current Behavior
Currently fuzzy matching setting is a global setting which affects all projects. We have a Dependency Track instance running in your company and different departments are using it. Some are now wanting to scan with Fuzzy Matching while the others are complaining about too many False Positives.
Proposed Behavior
I would suggest the following:
- Adding a toggle button to the project creation dialog allowing to enable/disable the fuzzying on per project level.
- Marking the vulnerabilities found by fuzzying with a flag, which allows filtering them later in the UI. Probably the code section where to flag them could be here and here
