Hola VPN False Detection

L2 Linker

Hello,

 

Hola VPN is the world's first and largest peer-to-peer VPN proxy network with

over 230M installations worldwide and operated for many years.

 

Since 30-Aug-2021 Palo Alto Networks antivirus falsely identifies Hola VPN as a

"Generic.ml".

 

Please check it out and remove the false detection asap.

We currently do not have this file as malware, we currently see the file as benign.

This is a false positive. We are reviewing the sample and updating the verdict.

The verdict has been updated to "Benign" and it won't longer trigger malicious detection. Thank you for reporting the issue.
