I can't understand how is this report a clone and how to avoid clones.

Hi, I just submitted a report with ID 1380160.

Why is this a clone? Was it because I found XSS on the same parameter as other researchers? The parameter was ?s= on a WordPress site.

1) My Payload was an iframe and I made sure that it was not something someone else had posted.
2) In general it seemed patched because the site is running behind Cloudflare.

How can I avoid Clones in the future? I was super happy I found this and then super sad that was a clone without knowing why?

Kind regards
