This problem happens a lot with weapon modifications (especially when one of your guns reach 20, 30 and 40 level, which unlocks a new camoflage), checking or equipping these new items doesn't make the yellow dot disappear, it usually requires a full game restart (after making sure that all the new items are checked) to fix.
Even with some trouble the problem can be fixed by players ourselves, however, recently this happened:
Apparently there is zero new item in this section (at least there's no yellow dot), but the tab on top says otherwise. I've clicked and selected every single item I have in this section and restart the game afterward, but it didn't fix the problem like before with those weapon modification and camoflage.
The time that this problem showed up should be the time that I unlocked the wing looking icon (sorry for not knowing the exact English name) selected in the picture, which is an unlockable in the season pass. Is this a universal problem or is it just a glitch with my game or account?
Still an issue, even after the Season 3 update. This is unacceptable, EA. Please fix it. In addition to fixing the orange dots appearing even when there's nothing new, add a "Clear All" button as a quality-of-life feature.
I'll even be super nice and provide a screenshot showing the beautiful, totally not annoying, orange dots on my L85A3 primary. Then, in addition, I'll provide a screen recording showing every single possible page where there could be a "new item".

Add that gun to your favorites. Then go to favorites and it will say new in the top right of that gun. Click on the gun and it should disappear along with the orange dot.
Ghost Gaming talked about it in a video he did.
It worked for all my guns that still had the orange dot.
