dssenh_test-stripped.exe Malware

Post by arobertson1 »

Linux Mint 19.3
WINE: Github 05/06/20

I'm in the process of compiling the latest Github version of WINE and during the make process Sophos antivirus (Linux edition) reports that this file is malware:

~/Downloads/wine-master/dlls/dssenh/tests/dssenh_test-stripped.exe

As far as I can tell dssenh appears to be Microsoft's Enhanced DSS and Diffie-Hellman Cryptographic Provider. If you upload it to Virus Total there are other engines that detect it too.

Is this a false positive or is it malware? I don't remember having this issue with previous versions of WINE and Sophos AV running.

Thanks in advance
