Hi!

I use npiperelay as part of wsl-vpnkit to solve networking issues in WSL2 when connected to VPN, but my corporate security department brought this to my attention:

Can anything be done about this? My colleague noted that the code is not signed, which may explain part of the issue.

Thanks!

Same issue as yours. Could someone help with this?

Same issue encountered. Is that false positive?

I wanted to install with Chocolatey and the checksums match, but they had a different virus scan report. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/6b9ef61ffd17c03507a9a3d54d815dceb3dae669ac67fc3bf4225d1e764ce5f6/detection/f-6b9ef61ffd17c03507a9a3d54d815dceb3dae669ac67fc3bf4225d1e764ce5f6-1597847527
