Zen Browser picked up by Windows Defender as containing Wacatac.B!ml trojan

[vicvancooten]

What happened?

My Windows defender (W11) decided to Quarantine Zen Browser due to a notice of the Trojan Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml being present. It quarantined the entire browser.

I hope / assume this is a false positive, but it may be worth looking into.

Other information

• I do have Firefox Sync activated
• The only extensions that I have enabled are Bitwarden / AdGuard
• I have no synced themes and the Auto theme from Firefox is active.
• Some Zen themes are active, but I think those are only CSS.
• Firefox (with the same sync profile) is not picked up by Defender.

Reproducible?

• [X] I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.
