Malware.AI.3348

[Mid Piece]

My malware protection is preventing from opening the game and detected malware. Worked fine until now, not sure if this game is trustworthy, this only ever happens when I download chinese games.

You guys need to work harder. Tell me you are selling it without telling me.


"Reputable company"
This is next level marketing.

I'm starting to think you either trolling or are insanely mentally handicapped. Maybe both.

Huh?

That's the problem when using DuckDuckGo. Didn't find anything (only this thread) but Google obviously reveals a lot more threads related to the topic.

idk I'm finding quite a few posts, comments etc related to Epic games and Steam versions popping up with Malwarebytes detecting it

Yeah, I can believe that.
But it just makes it clear it's a false positive.

THe name even seems like a false positive.

He's upset that you keep pranking people by saying Malware Bytes is trash when it's one of the best AV/anti-Malware there is, and it's well documented.
It's a thousand times better than Avast and AVG.

[天才也要吃饭]

Yes bruh, we Chinese have only half a day left after playing our game. It's creepy!!! So please just delete it and close this page. Imao

Why are you making up stuff about Malwarebytes?
THat makes no sense.
What is your end goal here?
Like, no one but you has ever attacked them before.

I never attacked them. I only said that it's trash which it is.
All of this sounds like a "you problem" since not a single one AV apart from MalwareBytes didn't acknowledge this type of crap.
My endgoal? Some delulu here going on.
Even Windows Defender does a better job.
Not that i'm using it.

So your only argument is 'nah, it's trash'.
But more important, which AV are you using then?

Yeah i don't use those either because they are worse than MBytes.
He's upset coz he thinks i'm a moron.
Arrogant little ♥♥♥♥.

It MAY be a false positive, but it doesn't change the fact tons of people are getting it. I just don't think it's something to scuff at and tell people we're lying and being delusional when tons of people are getting the detection in Malwarebytes when they try to launch the game.

Oh, I understand, but why would this company ever do this?
It makes no sense, and it would destroy everything.
It would be very bad for the Chinese government!
Like, everything would go wrong here.

Not when trying to launch the game, only by full scanning the system. At least in my case. Also, like I said previously, only happens since (major) update.

BEWARE THE GAME CONTAINS POSSIBLE MALWARE

Malwarebytes a reputable company just detected malware "MALWARE.AI.3348615374" inside
"D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\BlackMythWukong\b1.exe"

My files have been quarantined and this was detected as of today as with many others reporting the same issue within the game's
community hub - discussion tab. https://steamcommunity.com/app/2358720/discussions/0/4426562616040117619/

I have no idea what "MALWARE.AI.3348615374" is even supposed to be, but you are evidently clueless. I perform digital forensics and malware analysis for a living and there is zero malicious indicators in any of the files.

Oh, and Malwarebytes classifies the black myth exe as clean. In fact, the 75 security vendors that have analysed the file have declared it clean:

Wait, what?
I'm so confused.
How are these people getting detections then?
Besides false positives.
And why would dozens, if not hundred report this?

False positives exist in the security world. Malwarebytes is not the only security vendor out there. That's why we aggregate scores across all security vendors in VirusTotal. And considering Malwarebytes themselves published no threat data on the executable, it's clear that we're dealing with false positives here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/430984d024dd625909c3948f48c6eb0bbcf983efe2a0050c13f6c29b35d5e9d8/detection

Claiming to be a digital forensics and malware analysis online is a big claim that most people aren't going to believe while trying to throw your weight around. Just saying.

Yeah. I can see that.
It's wild, but this is clearly a false positive.

[Falconero]

Same issue here. Also using MB Premium. Probably a false positive but I honestly prefer to wait further info on the issue before getting back into the game.

At least 1 sane person here who doesn't have a panick attack.
Been dealing with false positives more than half of my life and not once since i've started using BitDefender couple of years ago.
You can try to clear it up for them but evidently some people are just "users".
