MalwareBytes: Malware detected Emby

[Xtalfusion 0]

Hello, 

 

It seems that Malwarebytes on my phone dectect Emby as an Trojan. (Trojan.SMS.Chismes)

 

I have deleted Emby from my phone and downloaded it again from the playstore.

But again MalwareBytes says it is a Trojan.

 

Is this a False Positive?

 

Greetings

Is this a False Positive?

 

Yes.

I just encountered the same issue. Why is this being detected as malware?

Have a look at this thread where Kaspersky was not happy then was all of a sudden!

Malware detection works on pattern matching.  This is one of the old "1000 monkeys on typewriters" problems.  Some random string of bytes in our package happens to match a pattern.

I am getting the same thing on AVG on Samsung.

I just ignored it assuming it is a false positive.
