Exploit detection ignoring allow list?


Recommended Posts

I have a windows machine with 4.5.16 running Blue Iris which uses python to use AI for object detection in video recordings.  The code is on github and called CodeProjectAI - kind of like DeepStacks.  When I add the file "C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\AnalysisLayer\bin\Python37\python.exe" to my allow list - set to "Exclude from all detections", Malwarebytes seems to totally ignore this and it gets caught with the exploit detection engine.  I've tried allowing the entire folder "C:\Program Files\CodeProject" as excluded from all detections too - but Malwarebytes still blocks it with exploit detection and really messes up my Blue Iris stuff.  (Blue Iris is video surveillance software)....

Is this expected behavior?  How can I whitelist this one particular process from the exploits and still get exploit protection on my video server?

The Premium license key is backed up and reinstated. All user configurations and other data are removed. This process requires a reboot.

@Gleep52 Please provide a log of the detection.

You can find Scan and Protection logs within the Malwarebytes 4 program in the following location

RTP stands for Real-Time Protection and is where automatic protection operations would normally be logged
