[Bug]: WAU-Configurator triggering anti-virus products (various)

Open Quitch opened this issue 11 months ago • 2 comments

The problem

Attempting to open the WAU-Configurator zip on Windows 11 with the latest definition files causes Windows Defender to block it, detecting it as Trojan:AndroidOS/ZkarletFlash.

VirusTotal shows that the following products also detect it as a trojan:

Aracit BitDefender Emsisoft Fortinet GData Google Ikarus Lionic MAX Rising SentinelOne (Static ML) Trellix (FireEye) VIPRE Zoner

I also replicated this on Windows 10 using the latest definition files.

What version of WAU has the issue?

1.19.1

What version of Windows are you using (ex. Windows 11 22H2)?

What version of winget are you using?
