Description
### Current Behavior
DependencyTrack reports a false positive CVE as the version from NVD is not compared in the right way. If you upload the following cyclonedx file to DependencyTrack 4.8.0, DependencyTrack will report a vulnerability which was fixed in gSOAP 2.8.75. However, the version in the cyclonedx file is 2.8.123e.
Analyzer is NVD (unable to attach screenshot for some reason).
