Well, my bad really as I should have asked for an actual " Official " url/link. Do you or anyone else have one?
This file is part of Brave browser and installs with it so maybe there's no official link to download it expect maybe somewhere in their github! I checked the hash, it's the same file that's being detected by some AVs. I just zipped that file from my PC and shared the link.

K7 Total Security also detects it as "Riskware" by signatures, once I check for updates.

In Brave, I unchecked Tor and CryptoWallets extensions usage (as I don't use it anyway), I no longer have any detections when checking for updates of Brave.
