This morning, I see a new block by DeepInstinct in reference to Firefox.exe
"...was identified as a remote code injection and is now blocked
Security Engine= Behavioral analysis
Security Module Remote code injection"

probably safe to assume this is a false positive, only my 2d in about 9 months, & IIRC I think the first one was also remote code injection(??). So think this is NOT exactly a false+ as I think the detection is real, but it's "false" in that I need to create an exception for firefox. But also wondering if something changed in how firefox goes online & interacts with the system. I was not running firefox when this popup block appeared, so I assume it was firefox checking for updates...? :unsure: Any other Di users see this...:unsure::unsure:
PS sorry no screen shot snip it as popup was on my hardware win10, and I'm online in VM.

Edit: perhaps of interest, Firefox 122.0.1 and as I said above it was not running, so I clicked its icon to open it, and it open normally and I checked "About" and it opened normally too... :unsure:So that raises some questions in my mind about the Di "detection" / block... :unsure:

Wow & good, not just me :D

PS I sent an email to cyberforcesecurity. If we both got this popup, then probably 100s or 1000s others did too, and if false+ maybe it will be fixed by Di rather than creating exception.
