Summary

Clarified that findings are generated for vulnerabilities 'with a fix or pending fix'

Security assessment

This change adds precision to vulnerability reporting criteria but doesn't directly address security issues or introduce security features. It improves documentation clarity without evidence of security vulnerability mitigation.
