I tried this same scan on FOSSA, which shows license scan-passing.

I see you are logged in.

What is displayed when you log out - or in a private mode?

Also, it seems you have a different link. Can you paste it?

https://app.fossa.io/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2Fwebpack%2Fwebpack/refs/branch/master/4972fd8bd6790eb1ee45602c35f38b7f79849b61/preview is target of readme badge for me.

Also, how you see readme badges? Are any failing?

[Ark898]

Yeah, I tried using a different link https://app.fossa.com/projects/git%2Bgithub.com%2FArk898%2Fwebpack/refs/branch/main/6842c9a2c9b70e760143188ffa5baa19a72799cb. For your link, it shows license scan-failing. Might need to reinstall or update the template I guess, because it is showing alright to me.

Might need to reinstall

Reinstall what? I am checking on website, following what is linked in the readme.

[Ark898]

Reinstall/Update the template u are using for showing css in the readme.
