Why Ikarus reports MBAM PUA.OSX.Macbooster?

I know you are going to say it is a FP

But why an AV detects that MBAM is not clean?

If I'm going to be brutally honest, it's because Ikarus sucks. I've done a lot of malware hunting on VirusTotal, and have found that Ikarus consistently throws off the results by returning tons of false positives among Mac samples.

I can confirm that the hash there is the same as the hash for that file I have here, and my copy is the reference copy; it is the source of all other public copies of that installer, and it is not malicious in any way.

I'll talk with the Ikarus folks about this.

Thanks for you honestly ☺️

yup, I also don't trust Ikarus

I hope you can contact them

Thank you very much

Ikarus has reported that this issue has been fixed, though it may take a little time for that to be reflected in VirusTotal.
