January 10, 2021 2.095 and antivirus | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi, The site virustotal.com doesn't like the new 2.095.0 release for Windows: three engines find a threat in "rdmd.exe" file in the 7z archive. One engine finds BScope.TrojanRansom.Encoder in it, and two others find Hacktool.Win32.Krasnoglaz.Gena. The latter is new: detected in 2.095.0-rc1 version, but not in 2.094.2 release. One engine detects a threat in some other executables from the archive as well. Note: when given the whole 7-zip archive, some of the engines time out, so it's best to upload and check the ".exe" files separately. What's the next thing to do here? Obviously, I'd like the release to not contain threats (or false alarms), so that we can feel safe about installing dmd on servers and such. Ivan Kazmenko. |

MS Defender on my company Win10 laptop blocks 2.095 also :(((
No update / installation possible.
And no, I cannot add exclusions in Defender as it's company managed...

I couldn't even download the installer .exe on my Windows machine without manually copying the link and pasting it into the address bar. Pressing the download link did nothing. This was with Chrome and its own malware protection.

Same, you have to get the file back from Windows Defender.

Pressing the download link did nothing. This was with Chrome and its own malware protection. That's a different issue: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21292 |

We've had this problem in the past. It would be nice if someone filed false-positive reports for these cases to virustotal.com so that this problem can be corrected. OK, but what is the exact process? What I found was a paid / trial version of VirusTotal services. ----- More details on "rdmd.exe" from the 7-zip archive (http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/2.x/2.095.0/dmd.2.095.0.windows.7z): https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/0943e40d04aa6f6e9a59dac8a0ec49d49542fe40af70c07a30f1389a42e40323/detection 1. Kaspersky reports "HackTool.Win32.Krasnoglaz.gena". However, the Kaspersky site itself marks the file as clean: https://opentip.kaspersky.com/0943E40D04AA6F6E9A59DAC8A0EC49D49542FE40AF70C07A30F1389A42E40323/ My understanding is that the VirusTotal's version of Kaspersky is some conservative one, and Kaspersky site provides a more current version. 2. ZoneAlarm by Check Point reports "HackTool.Win32.Krasnoglaz.gena". Turns out this engine uses Kaspersky for virus detection. 3. VBA32 reports "BScope.TrojanRansom.Encoder". Can't find an online version of this antivirus. There is also the case of Windows Defender reported here and by a fellow user also, which I myself didn't experience. Ivan Kazmenko. |

I've just downloaded, extracted and manually scanned the .7z successfully on an up-to-date Win10 machine with enabled Windows Defender. I am hitting an 'Operation did not complete successfully because the file contains a virus or potentially unwanted software' error with PowerShell's Net.WebClient.DownloadFile() on a CI box though; not sure if that comes from Windows Defender. |

Perhaps you can check if rdmd is compiled -m32mscof or -m32. If it's compiled with -m32 it will produce OMF object files and link with the DMC runtime. Perhaps compiling for COFF and linking with the MS runtime makes a difference?
