Does Openvas know when a patch has been superseded and look for the 
installation of the new patch instead of the old one?

For example, if I scan a machine that has the March 2017 security cumulative 
rollup, it's reporting the machine has the SMB vulnerability that was fixed 
with MS17-010 even though the March rollup includes the MS17-010 patch. So I 
assume the report is a false positive.

If it's not smart enough to detect that, is there a way to update the NVT to 
look for the cumulative update instead? If so, where do I find instructions on 
how to do that?
