TOEMS 1.5.7 Flagged as Trojan/Virus

jr-m4

I was about to start with an evaluation of TOEMS. However, downloading the signed binary 1.5.7 (https://github.com/jdolny/Toems/releases/download/v1.5.7/Theopenem-1.5.7-signed.msi) Resulted in Defender removing it immediately. Stating Virus/Trojan.

Here is a VirusTotal scan that we did afterwards:

Yep, there have been many reports about this. There isn't much I can do until the next release. I need to remove the code that's triggering the false positive, but I also need to figure out how to achieve the same result with different code.

I just downloaded 1.5.8-signed and Defender and Trellix are fine with it so far, I haven't installed it on my production system and probably won't for several months. My lab would just be basic Defender and hopefully I can get to this in the next couple weeks, really need to image my system again with nice fresh images. Also want to try new things which look more simple with this tool than with FOG.
