Hello,
I have an old plugin for CB 1.9.* which is still working on CB 2.* but I get an exclamation point, how can I upgrade it and make it native for CB 2.*, too?

Thank you.

Change its XML version tag to at minimum 2.0.0, but that's a bit misleading. The entire code of the plugin should be reviewed in an IDE with Joomla as the project root. Then check if there's any deprecated function usage and replace as needed. Functions marked deprecated will be removed in CB 3.0.0. So CB 2.x is your chance to upgrade your plugin before it flat out fails in CB 3.x.
