Hello, how can I add a suppression for a vulnerability found on a node package via NSP?

I am using the maven plugin and I get:

One or more dependencies were identified with known vulnerabilities in Activiti Admin:
package.json?jquery (jquery:2.0.3) : 328

The report doesn't show the suppression xml snippet I can copy from and there are no CVE/CPE I can refer to.

Thanks for any input

Currently, suppressions for NSP are not supported, but will be in a future release. 

Unlike use of the NVD, false positives are much less common when using NSP. What is common however, are transitive dependencies in tests and jQuery is a common culprit. These are not false positives but I agree that many orgs would like to suppress them.

If you find a true false positive from NSP, please create an issue on GitHub.

thanks, for the time being I am just skipping the NSP check as I have a mixed java/javascript maven project and can deal with the frontend vulnerabilities later
