[AntiVirus] Version 0.35.0 for 1.20.1 Suddenly fire up end point protections.

simonp862 commented 5 months ago

Good day, Today suddently, Windows defender was trowing up a tantrum for essential_commands-0.35.0-mc1.20.1 claiming it contain a trojan. It also prevented a modpack from starting. Windows defended removed it and restarting Minecraft worked fine i just dont have essential_command anymore.

Same hapenned on another system with Bit Defender.

Tried to download again from this repo. Chrome and Edge wont allow me for the same reasons.

Virus total give a 9/60 but with some less popular vendor so it might just be a false positive. It is a matter that should be looked into anyway.

Everything worked fine a day before and for a while.

System version Windows 10 Pro 22H2 19045.4291 x64 java 1.8.0_401

thanks for the report, confirmed happening on virustotal

full ec jar: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/6675982333be1a1398c4091e7e903de24f6bcad6d6be23df5e8b3b80eab8cc92
ec jar w/o packaged snakeyaml (but, after the fact, discovered that eccore still contains it, whoops) (regardless, detection count went from 9->8, for some reason) https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1a608654ffc78c24bd178de08112c441eb37888f05ebca08233e84cfb46bbcfb?nocache=1

idrk, this all looks intensely finicky to me. can look a little more tomorrow, but uh.. I'd personally be surprised if this were a real threat.

but I'm also known to have a disdain towards both Windows and AV tools, so... take that as you will.

it's a known issue with a lot of mods, they are getting false flagged.
