Android Question Bearfoos.A!ml in B4A.exe

[yo3ggx]

Hello.

This morning, when I try to run B4A, I received a warning from Windows Security:

Nothing changed from yesterday. I don't have any antivirus software installed except the one included in the OS (Win 11).
Anyone else with this issue? I'm using the latest B4A version.
Looking on what Bearfoos.A!ml can do, I'm a little bit scared.
Removed B4A, but when trying to install it again, I'm getting the same message.

After uninstalling B4A, if I try to check the installer I get no error, but when trying to install it again, I'm getting the message:

so I cannot even install it back.

The antivirus was updated this morning.

Anybody else with tis issue?

Download a fresh copy of b4a.
If you still get a warning it could either be a false alarm or your machine may already be compromised, so try a more thorough scanning (try housecall online scan from trendmicro)

As stated in my post, the installer is not flagged as infected, only the application executable (B4A.exe). I allowed the file in Defender and now is working, but I want to be sure is not something else. Checked my system several times and no other issues found, except B4A.exe. Checking B4A.exe file on virustotal.com I get Undetected from all engines. Only with the today Defender update I get the warning.

The B4A.exe file is digitally signed. You can check it by right clicking on the file.

It isn't possible to modify the file while keeping the digital signature (and there is of course no virus in the unmodified B4A.exe file).

Today a new update for Windows Defender was installed. Scanned again and no issues this time.
