As a support community, we occasionally get new threads from users like this one:

> **[CVE-2022-42889 effect on SonarQube](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/cve-2022-42889-effect-on-sonarqube/74672)**

> Hi All, I want to know a small info on whether sonarqube version 9.3 & 9.5 has any affect with CVE-2022-42889 We have verified the source code on github, couldn’t see any library related to org.apache.commons:commons-text so want to get the...

This was answered definitively in post 16, with staff color & everything:

> **[CVE-2022-42889 effect on SonarQube](https://community.sonarsource.com/t/cve-2022-42889-effect-on-sonarqube/74672/16?u=ganncamp)**

> Hey all. SonarQube is not vulnerable to CVE-2022-42889–neither v8.9.10 LTS or v9.7. org.apache.commons.text.StringSubstitutor, the use of which can lead to a vulnerability, is not used in either version. We will in any case update the...

And yet, we still get people tacking on to the thread saying

- hey, is this fixed yet?
- when will this be fixed?
- is SonarQube vX.Y vulnerable?
- when will you release a patch for this?
- you can’t just _say_ it’s not vulnerable; you have to _do_ something
- &etc

As a site admin (and herder of cats) I would love the ability to “promote” the official answer in post 17 to the top of the thread display so that everyone who came to the page would see it first.

I’ve just marked the official answer as the Solution, so that will get it a little more visibility. Unfortunately, the staff color doesn’t carry through to the Solution excerpt that’s shown on the OP.

Maybe marking the official answer as the solution will be enough, but my gut tells me it’s still not visible enough…

So, can we either have

- staff color carry through to the solution excerpt shown in the OP
- some ability to ‘promote’ a post to the top of a thread
