BlueMaxima's Flashpoint Project Starter Application False Positive

[oblivioncth]

Hello,

I author the main starter executable for the internet game preservation project "BlueMaxima's Flashpoint".

It is an extremely simple Windows bootstrapper that only does the following (other than internal string manipulation):

1. Determines the current working directory of itself (GetCurrentDirectoryW)
2. Starts the user-facing frontend/launcher application that resides in a subfolder beside it (CreateProcessW)

As my presence here implies, Malwarebytes detects it as Malware and I would appreciate it if you could inspect it for whitelisting, or otherwise alter definitions to prevent this false positive.

Attached is the scan log and executable in question.

The source for the application is available here: 

https://github.com/oblivioncth/StartFP

 

The particular revision this executable was generated from is: 

https://github.com/oblivioncth/StartFP/tree/5e1cddbaa3bac5ede2df95167f206dd5855e168c

 

Thanks.

Thanks. This has been whitelisted.

Well... that was incredibly quick.

I'm assuming it's likely that basically every future build would have to be whitelisted, assuming no significant programmatic changes?

Luckily, given its simplicity this application will only be rebuilt quite seldomly anyway

Shouldnt always be the case. The def should be pulled later today and the file itself is already cloud whitelisted.

Oh ok, glad it's a little more through of a whitelisting.

Thanks for the great support.
