Malware warnings #39

Closed eidze1 closed 2 years ago

eidze1 commented 3 years ago

Several browsers block the newest zip and detect it as being malware. The x86 binary is detected by 21 AV engines (virustotal.com) and x64 version by one. Not cool.

Version 1.5.0 is being marked as Malware. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/e2ee70f75cbd922823f1d9bc390e7ad7f49fed4d7b450831bc6bef8e2cb26a07/detection

Second this. Our local A/V is actively flagging the file hashes as well.

I built this from source which also generated malware warnings in VirusTotal for both the x86 and x64 binaries, so I feel confident this is a false positive. My stab at a guess is that the change to statically link the C runtime is causing this to be flagged.

Release v1.7.0 has signed binaries, which I'm hoping will prevent these AV warnings. Anyone still affected, please try it out and report back.

Virustotal is green for the 1.7.0 release, so I'm resolving this. Please file a new issue if any new malware warnings crop up.
