Virus in UD11.2.100.7.zip download

We just attempted to download the new UD11.2.100.7.zip release and our Sophos virus scan has detected Mal/Drod7zip-A. When we reported this to support we were told to white list it and proceed however that is not something we can risk doing. Has anyone else run into this and if so how did you proceed?

Sophos

Can you download it from another system (off of Sophos), and drop it on Virus Total and see what it says?

(I was in EpicWeb already and uploading it now…one moment…)

Thx, will see what that finds…

You will find many false-positives.

For Example:
Task Agent.7z

EpiInstallUtility.exe

It’s warning you that the .exe will extract 7z files and some 7z files have more 7z files inside of them and executables.

Really no fix. Unless Epicor Digitally Signs their Installers.

Only see one other similar finding…

I would agree with Haso, it’s most likely a false positive.

Epicor’s chosen Installer which is also my favorite InstallAware has had false-positive issues for a long time dating back 10-15yrs.
