    Google Safe Browsing Incorrectly Blocking All Downloads From PortableApps.com

    Google Safe Browsing is currently blocking all downloads from PortableApps.com. The example file containing malware is GoogleChromePortable_103.0.5060.134_online.paf.exe which is verifiably not malware according to VirusTotal, another Google property. This file has false positive detections in Jiangmin, Antiy-AVL, and Malwarebytes. Antiy-AVL and Malwarebytes have been informed of their issue. Jiangmin has no way to submit false positives. A request for review with the details has been submitted but will take up to 72hrs according to Google. Third parties have stated that it generally takes longer.

    Note that this will affect all browsers that make use of Google Safe Browsing including Firefox as well as services that use Google Safe Browsing as a feed like Microsoft Smart Screen within Microsoft Edge

    * I used Edge to download. No blocking.
