Hey o/
I wanted ot start a ktor 2.0.1 (or 2.0.0, tried both) project, but Windows Defender flags several Artifacts from the jetbrains ktor repo as trojans. Specifically it's having issues with these files for me: C:\Users\<username>\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\io.ktor\ktor-server-netty-jvm\2.0.1\6210e26a36285251b7822bddc484c8a4fd71569c\ktor-server-netty-jvm-2.0.1.jar and C:\Users\<username>\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\io.ktor\ktor-server-auth-jvm\2.0.0\ab5f2ce194ed07ca79bf5a7c298a757b000f37b9\ktor-server-auth-jvm-2.0.0.jar
System reboots/updates seem to not solve the problem. Gradle reimports/version changes don't seem to do the trick either. Does anyone know of similar issues?

Is it the same trojan as reported in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-52255?

[Jan Groen]

I don't seem to be able to access the issue. Is it maybe hidden because it's deemed security sensitive?

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

Oh, sorry. Windows Defender detects the Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml trojan.

[Jan Groen]

Yep, that's exactly it!

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

According to the issue, this is a false positive detect.

Thanks for checking 👍
