Kaspersky false positive #68

Closed deajan closed 9 years ago

deajan commented 9 years ago

Hello,

For whatever reason, the mailsend.exe that is in the bins directory of this repo is seen by Kaspersky KSN as Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent.aapli I've submitted that file to Kaspersky as false positive. Meanwhile, the packages i make including this version of mailsend.exe are detected too. Do you know anything more about this maybe ?

Regards.

This is first time I heard of it. I do not use Windows personally but the machines I use for compiling, have MS Security Essentials and Some version of McAfee and the binary is clean. If you find more info, please post the findings.

Thanks.

I know your executable is clean (virustotal.com show 0/58 detection rate) but this made my day a nightmare searching for possible infections of my computers just to be sure.

Anyway, here's the answer i got from Kaspersky:

Hello,

Sorry, it was a false detection. It will be fixed in the next update.
