Summary0001719: Windows DLL flagged as containing trojan
Description

I downloaded php XDebug DLL from https://xdebug.org/download
direct link: https://xdebug.org/files/php_xdebug-2.8.0-7.1-vc14-nts-x86_64.dll

The SHA 256 of the downloaded file matches the SHA on the download page (8ee9bc4cd08907fd016edf291d143399c8f1fe99d1885bd624a5cb1adca18808)

Windows Defender (Security intelligence version: 1.305.2850.0, updated 2019-11-26 6:50 AM) flags it as "severe" threat.
This might be a false positive, but if it's not a false positive, a trojan in the XDebug download DLLs would be very serious. So I wanted to inform you FYI.

Details:

Thread detected: Trojan:Win32/Spursint.F!cl
Alert level: Severe
Category: Trojan
Details: This program is dangerous and executes commands from an attacker.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Run Windows 10, with Windows Defender updated on 26 Nov, 2019 (Security intelligence version: 1.305.2850.0, updated 2019-11-26 6:50 AM)
  2. Download https://xdebug.org/files/php_xdebug-2.8.0-7.1-vc14-nts-x86_64.dll
  3. Windows defender quarantines it being a severe threat

This looks to be a false positive. It's the same SHA256 for the binary that I have produced locally.
