Is there a virus in the pre-built binaries?

I don't know much about your code but Bitdefender warns me and I throw the exe file in virustotal.com and It said this to me...

Is it a false positive?

TLDR: It is probably a false positive.

I compile the program with Nuitka in GitHub Action environment. A Python program packed/compiled into a binary is often easily detected as a virus. I checked some issues on Nuitka. Compiling the thing right without being falsely detected is behind their paywall.

I also checked the result from VirusTotal, no detection on Linux and MacOS binaries. Most of the threat detected in Windows's binary is "Lazy", and the sandbox analysis seems fine to me, with no evidence of the binary getting infected by any viruses.

Compilation is handled automatically within a GitHub Actions workflow. To safeguard against binary tampering post-download, I've implemented SHA256 checksum generation directly after compilation. The resulting hash is displayed in the workflow logs for verification (see bf06795), which will be retained for 90 days. This added security feature will be active from the next release onwards.

Anyway, when in doubt, you can always review the code (which I always encourage people to do so before using someone else's software) and install the exporter with pip install ..

Thanks.
