SrikanthL 0 Report post Posted August 28 I am the author of a Java based project called zip4j, a library to work with zip files in Java. Since a recent change in zip4j, VirusTotal reports of an issue with zip4j -> Java.Trojan.GenericGBA.27895, and one of the engines which reports it is AdAware. One of the users of zip4j has reported this issue, and after some investigation, I have written my findings in the post here. Basically, changing one cast of class to another is being reported as critical. This is definitely a false positive. Can you please let me know how I can get around this? This false red flag might impact the usage of my library for which I have put a lot of effort into. Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CeciliaB 468 Report post Posted August 28 Hi SrikanthL, Bitdefender seems to be the source of the detection. Please report the file to them: https://www.bitdefender.com/submit/ Bitdefender will then send new signatures without the false positive to Adaware.

SrikanthL 0 Report post Posted August 28 Thanks CeciliaB. That seems to have actually helped, and the issue seems to be fixed. I am pleasantly surprised at the reaction time from Bitdefender. Although only one Poland based tool called Acrabit still reports this on VirusTotal, but I guess they probably cache some definitions and over time that disappears as well. Thanks anyway for your hint. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
