False positive of one of my VPN, WindScribe's executable files

[pogue972]

Malwarebytes is falsely detecting one of my VPN, WindScribe's executable files as a virus.

As you can see from VirusTotal, no other detection engines are seeing this as malicious. 

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/16bfdf399e68ab141bfe7f7e29361dea115056ae2d589e40cf00fa0c8b054ec3/detection

It's detecting the file as https://blog.malwarebytes.com/detections/malware-ai/

The file is C:\Program Files(86)\WindScribe\WindScribe-cli.exe

Here's the hash of the file:

Name: windscribe-cli.exe

Size: 2664832 bytes (2602 KiB)

SHA256: 16BFDF399E68AB141BFE7F7E29361DEA115056AE2D589E40CF00FA0C8B054EC3

 

I can upload it if necessary, otherwise you can download the file from www.windscribe.com and install it yourself.

Hi,

This is indeed a false positive by our additional machinelearning engine we have implemented.
This will get fixed.

Thanks for reporting!
