Antivirus false positives
Hi,
ReadyNAS Antivirus is flagging a couple of files in the current version of WordPress, zxcvbn-async.min.js and wp-fullscreen-stub.min.js, but there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with them according to virustotal.com, and I'm getting multiple emails for each file every day.
I've tried editing /opt/ctch/etc/ctscand.conf to exclude these 2 files from scanning, but shortly thereafter the config file just gets reverted and the flagging continues unabated. Only workaround seems to be to turn Antivirus off completely.
Is there a way to submit files as false positives? Any other ideas out there?
Thanks,
Greg

Have you tried using the NETGEAR Anti-Virus Plus app?
Yes, I've tried the Antivirus Plus app many times. It's currently set to "Report and Block", with no options for whitelisting any files. Am I missing something there?
Hello gbeddow,
Are these the only JavaScript files you have stored to the NAS or there are other JS files that are not getting flagged? What's the current FW version of your NAS?
The AntiVirus and AntiVirus Plus do not have an option to white list files but maybe you can request this feature at idea exchange board.
