Hi @nicolo-ribaudo

Thank you for this false positive report. Resolving this issue is not a current product priority, but we acknowledge the report and will track it internally for future consideration, or if we observe repeated instances of the same problem.

Is the JavaScript parser open source? It would be a trivial pull request for me.

Looks like you already found the parser.
