Lens flares changes exposure and brightens the background?

Is there any way to control how lens flares are blended in the post process stack?

For me the lens-flares seem to multiply with exposure and change the exposure of where the lens flare is on screen. When in reality a lens flare should be mixed with the luminance calculated by exposure and other color adjustments and not enhance the final image.

No lens flare, background is unlit and dark (as it should)

Lens flare brightens so you can see in the dark.
