Description of the false positive
When the DefaultFullHttpResponse is used in a limited scope where it's provable that no headers are added from sources other than static locations, this is a safe place where verification is safe to disable.
Since this query already gets so few hits, I think that it's safe to continue to flag all other cases, even when QL can't prove that user supplied data flows to netty because many libraries are simply wrappers for netty so wouldn't directly show data flow from user supplied data.
