Explain purpose of binary files #25

Closed DanDevine closed 2 years ago

DanDevine commented 2 years ago

After I used this project, my security scanner identified one of the binary files as containing a malicious script. It found that smali2java_windows_amd64.exe contained the Trojan_Shelma.geq script.

This may be incorrect, or your build machine may be infected. Please comment on the need for the binary files, why they're included, and if you can confirm/deny my scanner results?

Thanks, DD

The binary files are for people that don't have Go compiler, and still would like to run the project locally.

The binaries are built from exactly the same source, and don't contain any viruses.

If you're still uncertain, you can build those binaries yourself..
