Avast thinks Avast is a threat

Not quite sure what to do here...

Not much information to work with here:

A screenshot of the Avast alert with the Details option enabled could help. - Attaching Images to your post - When you Click the Reply button it opens a text window for you to post your comment (reply or post).
Click the Preview button, that shows what you have input and expands it to include 'Attachments and other options'. Click that it further expands, here you can attach images, etc. at the bottom of your post.
See my attached image, click to expand.

OK whilst I don't use Avast One, my guess it would be the same for other Avast Antivirus products.

Are you also using the Avast Secure Browser (ASB) as the Avast User interface appears to be logging into chrome.  But I can't read/translate French in an image so I'm not entirely sure what the interaction is.

I will try and draw some Avast attention to this topic.

I don't use One either, but it seems that like Avast (free,premium) it's the new browser protection (cookies+passwords) for sensitive data.
Avast UI must want to connect the program to the avast account (menu->settings->login).
As far as I'm concerned, avast UI opens https://account.avast.com in my default browser (Firefox)
Lydia2 must have Chrome as default browser

Avast UI tries to access your login information in Chrome
These credentials include your username and password
Block or Allow

I don't think there's anything weird about this, the browser protection doesn't differentiate between accessing own avast accounts and others over the internet .

Hi, my take from this was to allow it so I did.
No disasters yet
