new false positive JS:Pdfka-gen [Expl] - AcroRd32.exe
« on: May 31, 2023, 12:00:44 PM »
Anyone else with massive detections regarding AcroRd32.exe as of today?

Why, dear Avast is the hub not able to detect such massive false positive by AI or intelligent programming?!?!?!?

Also seeing this - AcroRd32.exe when opening some but not all PDFs. Currently using Ninite to push out 64bit Adobe which doesn't trigger the false positive.

Same here. I get this alarm when I open a PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader (32bit).
So you guys think it is a false positive?

Can anybody from AVAST confirm this?

Avast seems to have fixed it... support confirmed the problem and said they gonna fix it... that seems to have happened.
