Interestingly when submitting the latest tar.gz to Virustotal, Microsoft claims it contains Wacatac.B!ml
Submitting one file at at time doesn't trigger it.
Even packing up all the binaries and submitting that doesn't trigger is (and neither does packing up the rest of the files abd submitting them.)
So I'm going to ignore MS on this one since no one else found anything suspicious either.

- eitland 5y agoThanks, although I should say that I searched for a few minutes about this Trojan and it seems Microsoft antivirus has been reporting it on other projects as well for years (since 2019 at least IIRC) and in the support forums the most upvoted answer was that the only way to stop it except for reporting every single new version as a false positive to Microsoft was to get a certificate and start signing the software. I wonder if there is someone here from either Microsoft or Virustotal who could do something about it?
- technion 5y agoIt's a valid problem, but I think the root cause has been a lot of complaining and noone reporting it through the right channels. They've responded to my ticket with a fix, a refresh on virustotal confirms zero detections now.
