Avast Threat Detected #21

I ran a brew update to the latest version of ngrok 3.7.0 and Avast put it into quarantine. Malware detected: MacOS:Ngrok-A [Tool]

Unsure if this is a false flag?

MacOS: Sonoma 14.4 M1 Mac

Same here with Bitdefender with this code : Application.MAC.Generic.2980

It seems to be global, not because of homebrew distribution. Even with the binary file (direct download from here: https://ngrok.com/download) , the same issue happens

Thanks all. We've been working with the antivirus companies to report false positives but some are more responsive than others. We haven't been able to get off the Potentially Unwanted Application/Program (PUA or PUP) lists for many of them.

If you could help us report the ngrok binary as a false positive, that would be great.
