FactHub auditor: Source Checker
Findings
Everything this auditor has flagged, across all its versions, and what happened next: still open, applied in a later version, acknowledged, or rejected as a false alarm. A finding raised again by a later run is superseded by the newer one, so each problem is counted once.
13 findings: 6 open, 6 applied, 1 acknowledged.
