Virus Warning with DryIoc Version 5.4.3 on Some Antivirus Software

[raymond-liao]

Description

We encountered an issue where our antivirus software flagged the DryIoc package version 5.4.3 as containing a virus (VirTool.MSIL.Obfuscator.f281). This warning appears when the package is installed via NuGet. However, using the DryIoc.dll directly from the same version does not trigger the antivirus warning.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install DryIoc version 5.4.3 via NuGet.
2. Compile the project.
3. Observe the antivirus software warning about VirTool.MSIL.Obfuscator.f281.

Expected Behavior

No antivirus warnings should be triggered when using the DryIoc package.

Actual Behavior

Antivirus software flags DryIoc package version 5.4.3 as containing a virus.

Workaround

Using DryIoc.dll directly from the same version (5.4.3) does not trigger the antivirus warning.

Environment

• DryIoc version: 5.4.3
• .NET version: [Your .NET Version]
• Antivirus software: [Your Antivirus Software]

@raymond-liao Hi, interesting issue.
I am not sure what causing the issue. Probably something inside the package bundle.
Could you check if the same happens for the latest 6.0.0-preview-07 ?
