Original report is flawed, it's a false positive to report the Netty vulnerability against the Lettuce artifact.

This advisory should be removed, it is a false positive report. The advisory asserts that the Lettuce package is vulnerable only because it expresses a dependency on a vulnerable version of Netty -- but Lettuce itself does not have this vulnerability: it does not actually package or shade the vulnerable Netty code. The Netty vulnerability already has its own CVE/advisory. This advisory incorrectly flags the usage of Lettuce even when a consuming project has otherwise overridden or excluded the actually-vulnerable Netty package.

The actual improvement suggestion is to remove this advisory altogether -- the web form that generated this pull request does not provide an obvious mechanism to do that.

Closing in favor of a manually-created pull request which will actually remove the file.
