Unsolved Trojan detected in linguist.exe
-
Hi, not sure it's the proper place, but the IT support in our company reported a trojan in:
C:\Qt\5.15.2\mingw81_32\bin
at file: linguist.exe.debugP.S. feel free to move the topic accordingly.

@ilianz This is user forum.
You should use Qt bug tracker to report this.
But most probably this is just a false positive. -
I reported this issue at https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-99723

Hi
I tried with mine and got only 1 hit. ?

This is not a problem. The
linguist.exe.debug
should be a Release Build with Debug Information, which due to some weird reason gets truncated to 792 bytes (not kilo bytes).linguist.exe
is available, which is only the release binary without debugging information.You can safely delete the
linguist.exe.debug
file and not have to deal with the antivirus complaining of an invalid executable.
