Modular rpm is a special type of RPMs which requires different handler. Modular rpms have been introduced in RHEL8 and Fedora 28. Modular rpms are stored in rpm database, but to be able tell if given modular rpm is vulnerable we need to know which module contains given rpm. Module name and streams are used as a rpm namespace. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/installing_managing_and_removing_user_space_components/installing-rhel-8-content_using-appstream https://fedoramagazine.org/modularity-fedora-28-server-edition/
Since we have special modular rpm plugin we have to exclude modular rpms from rpm extractor.
