Detecção-Kaspersky-VirusTotal.png

I was on Malware Hub seeing the VirusTotal page and Kaspersky pop up with this, why that happened? Someone knows why?

Download blocked, Object detected.

Looks like the hash/VT link of my latest sample #Qbot

Kaspersky detection on your screenshot is the same than on VT:
HEUR:Trojan.PowerShell.Generic

Weird, that block still happening or just once before?
 
I tried to talk to live chat but they ask me if I'm working with an infected bin I should not do it and therefore that's an infection, I tried to say that I'm not working on it and it's just an upload on VT which I just see it, I didn't make the upload, but they don't understand it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Do you have VT intelligence and can see the content tab?
Because that shows the malicious powershell string. I assume they see that string in the browser. It's an FP in the sense that it detects the string in the wrong context.

I'm not logged in, it's for logged users only or only on paid version?
 
They should easily be able to replicate the FP by just browsing the same VT page while logged in with an Intelligence account.
Yes, but I didn't know why this is showing to me if I not have such account. Maybe it's hidden?
