On Windows, a recent (2022-01-21) Avast update makes it target the binary LZMA module embedded in Python 3.9 and 3.10.

I'm talking about this file: <Python install directory>\DLLs\_lzma.pyd

I've run a VirusTotal scan of the 3.10 version of the file, which has returned 2 positives out of 67 at the time I'm writing this:

Can you confirm this is a false positive? Given the VirusTotal result I'm assuming it is, however I'd like to get official confirmation.

Also I should have added: I have already reported the file to Avast as a possible false positive, and I'm working on an app that heavily relies on LZMA so this has a high impact for me.

I don't think we've changed anything here in years, so I'd be very 
surprised if something new was in there.

More likely somebody PyInstaller'd some malware and the scanners picked 
up a generic part of it as the signature. Reporting it as a false 
positive should let them compare against the original sample and correct it.

Thanks for the quick response. It seems Avast was just as quick, I updated my AV's databases a few minutes ago and now it doesn't repost the files as malware. Same for the VirusTotal scans.
